I was told it was found some decades ago in a river bed in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I tried image searching it but couldn't quite find an equal one.

Also looks wrong for the location. Does anyone know which animal could it have been?

The almost cyclops like hole in the center is almost like a mastodon or elephant skull, but the teeth are definitely not and it doesn't appear to be that large... Maybe a big cat? A boar?
