A customer brought me this to look at and hopefully identify. I don't have a clue! He paid a few bucks for it at a small rock show and there was no information as to species, or even a vague location where it was found. Anyone have any ideas as to what critter this belonged to?

By golly, after searching Google images, that looks like it! That would also explain the section of bone that has no teeth rather than a full set all along the bone like most other animals would have. Thanks Scott

The blank area stumped me. I can spot a T Rex tooth, or a Megalodon, but as much as I love fossils, I'm not good on ID's. The link you PM'd me was very helpful also!
