Title: Whose teeth are these?
Post by: NatureManDan on 25/02/2010 01:24:44

I found these teeth in a creekbed in northern IL. After doing my own research, I've concluded they're probably from a cow or a bison. Is there an easy way to differentiate between cow teeth and bison teeth? Here are pictures from both sides. [ Invalid Attachment ]  [ Invalid Attachment ]

It would have been helpful to photograph them with something beside them for scale... . can ewe provide a dimension ?
