New Members Trickman Posted October 13 New Members Share Posted October 13 I recently found these east of the town of Susanville in NE California. Am thinking horse teeth, and, is the last photograph of a horse canine? Would greatly appreciate if someone could confirm, or suggest the genus that these might be from. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C2fossils Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 They all look like horse, the last one we need more photos to identify (I am thinking partial horse/bovid molar though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me ask a simple question . How many horse teeth did you find ? Six, one in each photo. The most important photo you need to provide for each tooth found is this one. It is the chewing surface and from the right lower jaw of the genus Equus, species unknown. It is a Horse tooth. The last photo is not a Horse canine. Only male horses have a canine. It is called a wolf tooth. Here is what a Horse canine looks like. Please show us the chewing surface of each tooth. 1 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Members Trickman Posted October 14 Author New Members Share Posted October 14 C2fossils and Shellseeker, First, thank you both for responding. I greatly appreciate it. Secondly, I apologize re for not having provided information about the number of teeth. There were three, the first three photos were of the same tooth, the second two were opposite sides of the second tooth, and the sixth was the third. Re the chewing surfaces, the first photo below is the chewing surface of the second tooth of the original posting, which is not the whole tooth but just one side of a tooth that became fragmented, so it shows only a thin section of the chewing surface. The second photo is the chewing surface of the third tooth of the original posting. Difficult to see the enamel, tho. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
