UPDATE! I figured out the tooth mystery.

Thank goodness for the power of the interweb.

Also, the other tooth, the one I said was a normal horse tooth...that one is a fossil as well. YIKES!

    quite interesting that horses may have got their start here.

    any whooly mammoth findings in your neck of the woods? Our purdue/indiana campus teams are Mammoths, because apparently someone dug up one around here years ago.

    YEAH! some old farmer is auctioning off his mammoth tooth...it weighs 25 pounds. I wanted to go but I only had five bucks.

    Its amazing how things get pushed around by rain and moving water...not to mention those ol' glaciers.
