Don’t have this with me at the moment but can get measurements if that would help 

to identify. A deciduous tooth? Tapir? Camel? Not a tooth?

Haven’t seen anything like this before. Any help is appreciated!

Yes, Deciduous.  Nice find,  these are rare. Still under the gum line when the animal died. No Roots, Roots are last to form.  I think Tapir premolar, but not sure  which one. We will see what other TFF members think.
