JessStec Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Hi, my name is Jess, I am from a city in Massachusetts where we are lucky enough to have commercial fishermen go out and bring back some of the best seafood. I dated a fishermen for a bit and I could of cared less about money, I always wanted the sand dollars and sea glass and for such a horrible relationship I was at least able to make it out alive with what we thought to be possibly a saber tooth tigers? I appreciate any feedback. Thank you ! Jessie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradley Flynn Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Hi. The limit is 3.95mb, meaning that you can only load 3.95mb of data. For example, l you can load three pictures of 1.11mb or one picture of 3.95mb or seven pictures of 564kb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Try clearing your internet browser cache if you get any upload errors. Looks more like a horn to me. We do need to see the broken end looking at it straight on.

dhiggi Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Could it be walrus tusk? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymig Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 dhiggi that what Im thinking. Location is key. That and it looks Walrus tusk as well. Many times I've wondered how much there is to know. led zeppelin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the shape is key. I don't think this has the shape of a walrus tusk. Tusks have a rounder cross section and are less curved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had the look of mammoth tusks that I’ve seen from the North Sea, but wrong size and shape, that’s why I thought walrus. A google image search does show walrus tusk, modern and fossil to sometimes share a similar cross section and curve. Just throwing my thoughts out there...

Rockwood Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I think we need more evidence concerning just what shape we have here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JessStec Posted October 28, 2020 Author Share Posted October 28, 2020 A professor from Harvard had said there was a good possibility of a saber tooth because it was land in new england prior...

JohnJ Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 This is clearly not a tooth. However, it does exhibit many characteristics of a tusk.
