Tooth Mystery!

On the left you'll see a horse tooth, it was found in a creek and it fell out of a dead horse's mouth at some point this century...

The tooth on the right... I don't know what kind of animal head it fell out of and it's bothering me. The molar is a behemoth at two inches across and two inches top to bottom. I think its from the Pleistocene.

I found the mystery molar in the same rocky creek Jimmy found the horse tooth.
