Could be a bison molar. We have have and it looks similar. My buddy pulled out a 20 thousand year old horse skull after a flood last summer and it looks similar but not the same. We took the teeth to a local museum and thats how we were able to get a correct ID on the animal. A good place to take it would be to a local college who is willing to ID it for you.
