Teeth are basically mouth rocks so it counts.

What kind of tooth is it?

Mammoth tooth is what my uncle who found it has always said. I have it in at my shop, and a couple of years ago a paleontologist came In and I showed him, he agreed, mammoth tooth. Much more than that I do not know.

I should get my ass in gear and take it to the geology department at the university in town.

Buried the lead on that one. That's cool as hell.

I wanted the post to be about the rock, not the story.

I respect that.
