There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

There superior half of the tooth is much too straight. In tiger, any crack in the enamel has a curved contour, followed the general curvature of the tooth. However in this tooth the crack is straight. Also, the tooth is laterally flattened and not as conical as that of cats. Where in Indochina is the tooth from? To me it very, very, very tentatively looks like a large crocodile tooth from the crocodile farms in countries like Thailand. I can't find a good reference photo but here's a fossil crocodile tooth with similar shape:

Overall, if the tooth is real, I don't think it's that of any cat. Easier and safer for sellers to grab a tooth from a crocodile farm and sell it as that of cat's.

It is a full inch longer than the nile croc tooth from Bone Clones.

Maybe they do not belong to the same dentition among the 66 teeth of a croc?
