Hi all, Recently was able to finally locate a new site to check out with a friend of mine. Not much float but we did end up finding these two pieces. Any ideas on the two bones in matrix? The one I’m assuming is a metapodial of some sort and the other looks familiar I just can’t place it. As for the mandible section, I couldn’t be any happier. I believe it belongs to Tomarctus, but I’m open to feedback on that. as always, thank you for looking.

It has been a long time since it rained enough to inhibit collecting ammonites out in the Puerco... ...so south of the Puerco it is. The southern edge of the Albuquerque Basin is composed of middle Miocene outcrops... ...I headed there for a few hours of hiking. I found many tid-bits of white mammal bone early on in my adventure. I followed a small "trail" of shards up the hill to find this piece of a camel jaw... ...followed by this (I think ) small piece of antler. What a great way to spend

I thought I would post a couple of photos of some unusual Sharktooth Hill Bonebed fossils. The first one is an unknown though now I think it's a cone. I showed it to a friend who helped me clean it by putting it in his ultrasonic cleaner. He wasn't sure but he also noticed what appears to be an attachment point at the top. It's abut 2 1/16 inches high (approx. 5.1cm). For years, it was partly covered in matrix and sat in a box with my bony fish stuff. I thought it might be some weird "growth" or other unfamiliar fish part. I decided to clean it earlier this year. It's the kind of fossi
