 Badger Teeth
Badger teeth -- specifically the 1 1/8" - 1/1/2" long canine teeth of the badger -- are often placed in African-American mojo bags to increase gambling luck.
The teeth of other species of animals -- including alligators and bears -- are also considered lucky for gamblers, as are such natural curios as rattlesnake rattles, alligator feet, bat hearts, rabbit feet, nutmegs, buckeye nuts, Lucky Hand roots, five-finger grass, John the Conqueror roots, and lodestones dressed with magnetic sand.
Unlike the purely American alligator tooth charm or the essentially African rabbit foot charm, the use of the badger tooth as a gamblers' amulet seems to have originated in Europe, where the badger was a powerful totemic animal in ancient times.
