Hello to anyone who has taken the time for this. I am a novice novice, that enjoys going to the beach and shark tooth hunting, mainly in Horry County-Myrtle Beach, South Carolina-USA. I found these two items both times thinking it was wood, but realizing that probably not since they were quite hard. I really believe one to be a bone (images 1-5) and the other I just don’t know (images 6-9). Any ideas?

From glacial deposits in E Kansas. I need some help on this one. When I found it, I assumed it was bison... however to my eyes it doesn't seem close to bison or cow after studying some papers. Could this be hippus, or possibly something else? As always, I really appreciate y'alls help. I'm stumped with this bone, I do my best to id stuff on my own- Still learning. Thanks! Proximal: Distal:

Hey everyone! I need some help identifying an object I found in Asotin county, Washington on the banks of the snake river. I believe the object is a bone. looks like one end of a femur to me but I'm just guessing. It's probably from a cow or horse, but it's really heavy, like it's petrified or water logged, leading me to wonder how old it is. I have never seen anything quite like it, myself. Any input would be amazing. Please and thank you.

I found this bone fragment while hunting for shells on San José Island, Texas (near Port Aransas). There is a history of cattle ranching on the island and there was once a herd of wild horses (thus Mustang Island, just south of San José). When I found it, it was wet and a little darker — I expected that when it dried out, it would be a recent bone. After a month, it is still dark and heavy, so I am thinking it might be mineralized/fossilized. I heated a nail to see if it would burn or emits an odor, but it did not. I then used a butane torch and the result was the same. In my mind, it would be really strange to find a bone fossil on a Texas beach. Thus, I am turning to this group to help figure out what this bone is.

This was found near the Calvert formation in Maryland. It does seem to be fossilized. Thanks for helping out a newbie and I will take proper photos for future posts.

I know it's hard to identify a bone with an unknown location and no identifying features but you all are super good so I wanted to give it a swing. I purchased this in IN, USA from a flea market for .75c was just curious what it could be if it could be IDed

I found this a couple years ago on a ranch in north east Wyoming. It was sticking part way out of the ground and it looked like a fossil of some kind. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hiya, found this in Southerndown, Wales. I think it could be bone but I dont know. And even if it is bone, I've no idea what animal it'd be from. This site is jurassic 200-190 myo. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

I found this fossil toe bone in the Lance Formation of Wyoming. Is it a theropod toe bone or a turtle toe bone? It seems hollow.

I picked this up in the back yard here in Cleburne, TX. Racoons unearth small stones digging for grubs. Oysters and rudist fragments common in the soil here, but my intent was to spare insult to the mower blade. Something about it suggests bone to me. Could this be a thin walled bone that is barely preserved?

Hi all, Thanks so much for the kind feedback on my Berthasaura reconstruction. Here is another example of my work: A 'juvenile' tyrannosaur skull based loosely on Jane (BMRP 2002.4.1) I'm aware of the debates regarding age and species however I have just approached this as younger individual. Thanks so much for checking out my sculpt. I'm printing a prototype as we speak, I'll post some updates on here once its assembled!

I found this (fossil?) bone on the beach at the Beaumaris fossil beach. Could it be fossilized or just bone? Does anyone know a way to see if something is fossil?

Hello all, I posted a tooth yesterday that you kindly identified for me, and I have a few more fossils that I found that I would really appreciate an identification on. All found on Zandmotor beach, The Netherlands. There are four specimens: 1 A bone with a hole in the middle, seems like a vertebrae(??). Any idea what fragment it really is and maybe what kind of animal it came from? Length: 2.5 cm 2 A bone that I would also like any information about, although it might be really hard to identify. - 4 cm 3 Small, flatter bone. - 4.5 cm 4 Are these petrified wood by any chance? They do feel like a rock and also sound like such when I gently hit them with another rock. There are 3 pieces in total that I have shared. - around 6 cm.

I found this mandible last year, and have been trying to id it. I think it's squirrel, but I'm not sure. Difficult for me, since it's just a partial. If it is squirrel, genus/species ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Glacial deposits, E Kansas, USA Has no teeth. Missing lower and rear section of mandible.

I have a couple of these, this is the best specimen. I think they are from a mosasaur but only because they were found on the NSR. There are two indentions/holes that don't show up that well in the picture. The first picture shows the indention the best, there is a corresponding one on the other side. I apologize the lighting didn't make that more clear. If it helps in identification, I can retake pics.

Curious about these - and they may not be fossils (more modern), but the color of them intrigued me as they are not white. These were washed up on the beach after a storm and I think are associated as they were found in the same general area. They have similar features, and maybe are the same type of bone with different levels of wear? They were found on the beach near where the Goosfare Brook empties out in the the Atlantic Ocean. 43°29'42.0"N 70°23'04.8"W Thoughts?
