Mysterious Bone?

[Isaac 0]

This really doesn't have anything to do with Predator or Pests, But i figured out of all folks you guys would have the best idea what this is, While i was herding the ducks back last night from the creek i saw some teeth sticking out of the water, It is way too big to be a Deer jaw bone and given that the tip is broken off i'm sure it was more than 12 in. Any other idea's on what it maybe? Thanks

Hmm, kinda looks like part of a horses or cow (more likely cow) jaw, do you have elk where you are?

No Elk around here. We used to have horses but they died about 14 years ago, they were cremated so it's not there remains either.

It could have washed down from somewhere, or been there a long time, who knows, coyotes could have carried it too.

I thinks it probably cow by the shape.

The Creek ends about one mile from where i found it, Front was definitely broken off as well as some the teeth. The teeth diameter are very similar in size to that of a Bison.

Oh, that would be cool if it was from a bison!

Yes, it would!

It seems Bison and Cow teeth are very similar, So i may never know.

Looks like a horse jaw bone. A prehistoric horse to be exact.
