The tooth isn't flat in cross section it is round, aren't sharks teeth more flat? and i found it in central North Dakota.

I'm with John. Leave the spirits of that tree alone. maybe they will create good mojo for those woods.

Yes, the tree is safe! Mainly because it is 10 feet on the wrong side of the fence....... Well I don't know if I would cut it or not as I noticed the faces as soon as I saw it myself. I have to admit though I did think about cutting it and useing it in my den as a pole bark on just like in the picture! Besides there's to many "hollars" between here and there to wrestle it without using half of the tradgang members............

That tooth might be a badger claw and not a tooth at all.

Don't know about the rest but gopher's does not look like any sharks tooth I've ever seen. I used to collect them and have had thousands. The first thing that came to mind was a very nice turkey spur.

Stay sharp, Kenny.

Jeff, You have no idea of the weird things I seem to attract (find in the woods)! Just this week I found the weird bone, funky tree, a couple sheds, a quiver with 4 gold tip arrows and montec broadheads, and strangely enough someones watch! I can't wait to see what I stumble across this weekend!

I vote with John and razorback on the tree; there are definitely things that should be left as they are.

On the tooth I'm voting with ChuckC - looks more like a claw to me than a tooth - mostly because my limited imagination is having trouble orienting it as tooth that would be more harm to prey than to the animal itself.
Don't meddle in the affairs of dragons; people are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Maybe that tooth came from a bite, interested to find out what it is.

i thought of a claw too but when i think of a claw i think of a finger nail type horn material, this really looks like a bone/tooth type of material.

Giant Albino Spotted Pygmie Whooping Woluf.

I have no idea.  It's new to me.  Maybe take it to a university biology lab or something?

The bone is clearly from a skunk ape
(the smaller arboreal variety).

Don't cut that tree, Pinocchio is living inside it! To be honest,it scares me a little.

Maybe even an eagle or large owl talon.
