dbrake40 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Un-erupted deer or elk or what? Found in southern Minnesota hillside creek bed. Deposits in the area are typically Holocene or Pleistocene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Pristis Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Not just unerupted, I think . . . it has the profile of a deciduous tooth. I think moose, maybe elk-moose (Cervalces scotti). A very large cervid is probable. 1 http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There hasn't been elk in the area since the 1800s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
