Jaybot Posted November 11 Posted November 11 I found this fossil tooth which I assumed was a bovid tooth when I first picked it up. Very worn down, would have belonged to an old feller. Interesting enamel pattern, reminds me of some horse teeth- however I couldn’t find anything that was an exact match. Is this a Equus tooth? What do you think Jack @Shellseeker? I know you are quite knowledgeable on horse teeth.

Shellseeker Posted November 11 Posted November 11 At this size, I would think Bison. Have to id position, which might be difficult. 1 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast"

Oh well EDIT: looking at it more, this may even be a Bos tooth....
