lexandy8081 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) I also found this fossil. Not sure what it is any kind of help would be appreciated Edited January 27, 2021 by lexandy8081 Extra pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleoNoel Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 It's bone for sure. 100% not a T. rex tooth though. Where is it from? Are you aware of the formation? It has the vague shape of a bison horn, but I'm gonna say it's indeterminate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norki Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 It's certainly got the general shape of a theropod tooth, but it's lacking enamel and the tell-tale serrated edges. I'm going to agree with Noel and say that it looks like a horn core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I'm in the horn/core camp - bison is a possibility.
