so you come, with a random claw/tooth without telling us atleast WHERE you are so we MAY have an idea of what sort of animal COULd have dropped that epic piece of itself...harldy seems fair hahahahhaha
the detroit d doesn't give it away? im in metro detroit, macomb county and no its not an alligator, and i dont think theres bears down here, in the city. also if it helps i found this in the woods on a trail, somewhat still in the ground, and it appeares to be almost fossilized at one end
It looks like an antler tip, from a deer. examples of deer antler tips in "art": http://www.alaskaantlerworks.com/images/salmon carving and stoppers 066.jpg
this was the first guess, but it isnt textured the same as any deer antlers ive seen, and ive seen plenty. and it seems almost like..enamel? and like the texture of a claw, or tooth..
I don't think it's a tooth, because then the whole thing would be enamel? So I think you could cross that off the list.
