Looks like a sand tiger
This is indeed a tooth from a sand tiger shark, nice find @mickey-cantrell! You can put genus Carcharias into the taxon wizard and it should fill out the classification field for you. Next, you can fill out the geochronology as follows: Miocene epoch, Neogene Period, Cenozoic Era, Phanerozoic eon. There should be a wizard which helps you with that though! For lithostratigraphy you can put Hawthorn Group and Peace River formation. Lastly, take a picture of the tooth with a scale, either a ruler or a coin. If you complete these steps and tag me, I’ll mark this fossil research grade! Let me know if I can be of any service.
