You found this on THE beach, as though there were only ONE beach in the world?! LOL

For the purpose of identification, the best views of a mammal tooth are lingual, labial, and occlusal photographed straight-on (perpendicular to the tooth side or top).

That said, this appears to be a bovid upper cheek tooth, worn down in life, then worn by beach polishing.

Sorry, for my english but if I wrote it in Danish I don't think anyone could understand a word 😊

I know the place where it was in the mouth. Is more interested in which animal and perhaps from which age the tooth is from

Du fandt dette på stranden, som om der var kun én strand i verden ?! LOL

Med henblik på identifikation, de bedste visninger af et pattedyr tand er flersprogede, labial og okklusal fotograferet lige på (vinkelret på tanden side eller top).

Når det er sagt, synes dette at være en bovid øvre kind tand, slidt ned i livet, så båret af stranden polering.

Well we can always count on Harry to welcome new members with sarcasm and ridicule and just a smattering of insight and knowledge.

Well, Bill, you seem to be strong on the sarcasm and ridicule . . . now, you may want to work on your insight and knowledge.

I believe it is from a cow... like the ones that hambugers come from!

Welcome to the forum. I am sure these members will be very helpful,kind and knowledgeable . Your translation is fine.

Think it might be a horse tooth, these are Horse Teeth I've found on Florida beaches....

 

[Whiplash00]

Horse tooth was my initial thought as well. Nice find

 

[Harry Pristis]

I still say bovid, not equid.

[Harry Pristis]

That's disappointing, Bill . . . Your approval is SO important to me!
On the bright side, I'm sure your own likability here has gone up a notch.

Locked this NEW member came in one day and made a post. He has never returned since. Thanks for everyones kind treatment. Keep it up and this forum will be minus a few members. This childish bickering is ridiculous.

Snakemanbill, your reply was crude and completely out of line, do not repeat it again.
