I'm going to go with the honey badger on this one. The subspecies, signata, have an extra molar on the lower left. Other honorable mention is the narwhal which the males usually have the left front tooth grow extra long like a tusk. Some narwhals have both teeth grow into tusks. However they do not have an odd number of teeth, so the honeybadger looks like the best answer.
