    Hi! My son found this in France in a river, region center , it’s quite unusual so I thought I’d show it to you guys. Any thought? IMG_3992.MOV

    Weird looking possible fossil?!

    Inherited this from my grandpa think he found it in Utah somewhere
  7. My oldest son yesterday got to be recognized on the Carson scholarship Facebook page for dinosaur day. Technically in the picture we were digging in the Devonian period so no dinosaurs to be found that day. Just thought I would share a little proud dad moment with the group that helped me rekindle my childhood love of prehistoric critters while helping point me to places to take him to hunt for fossils as well as museums to visit and also expand our collection of fossils beyond the typical Mid-Atlantic fossils we can find.
  8. Hiya everyone I purchased this small theropod tooth seller said it’s from the Judith river formation but doesn’t know the species is size is 7mm long thanks

    Dino vertebra unknown

    I ended up with a fossil with almost no id. (I need to avoid fossil shows; where I can yield to temptation) It is reported to be a Moroccan dinosaur vertebrae. If anyone can make a educated guess as it its species, age and formation, based on its preservation and shape, I would greatly appreciate it. It is a rough oval 14 cm by 10 cm and 9 cm in height

    Isle of Wight finds - ID help needed

    Hi everyone! I travelled to the Isle of Wight during the long weekend of April we just had and found some interesting things. Everything below was found in the south part of Shanklin beach. I'm sorry I did not include a scale in the pictures, but they are all around 10 cm. Thanks for you help :-)
  11. Visero

    Archeocete Tooth ?

    I really dont know what this is, It feels like a bone or something and it has cavities and grooves like a tooth. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Tiny Dino bone?

    Last week we picked up this tiny gem of a bone. Could it possible be a dinosaur bone? It was found in Myrtle Beach, SC.

    What is this

    My grandfather found this on their farm in the early 1900s.

    Fossil finds

    The BBC news has ran two great fossil find stories leading up to Christmas first headline was Largest millipede fossil ever! found on a Northumberland beach Arthropleura in a sandstone block Howick bay. The second story was of the best ever dinosaur embryo in egg found in china thought to be an Oviraptosaur. Both news items are worth checking out as they are fantastic finds. Merry Christmas to you all John
  15. https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/21/asia/baby-dinosaur-inside-egg-scn/index.html?fbclid=IwAR0sAbsuSVxh977-O4S2vNX0e6mTqmB2uufxRs_qQjiRLByoMWL_JlxtD4s
  16. This just looked bizarre compared to any other concretions with such smoothness and the perfectly scalloped out area. Could it be dino bone of some sort? ?
  17. I'd like to share with you a dinosaur footprint I recovered off the beach on Saturday. It comes from the Saltwick Formation, Whitby I know that dinosaur footprints are much harder to prove without absolute doubt since they are trace fossils unlike bone or ammonites ect. But I think this is a really good example as the three toes can be clearly seen. Not much of a heel so probably didnt put it's foot fully flat on the sand, which I've heard happened often (correct me if i'm wrong)

    Potential T. Rex Bone?

    I found this bone on a fossil hunting trip in North Dakota, it was identified as a theropod, probably a T. Rex. Can anyone verify this claim? Thanks for any responces! (The ruler is mesuring in centimeters)
  19. So guys I’ve been wondering about what y’all think are the best books for reference and for art books, paleo art is really cool to me and I’d love to add some. 2nd does anyone here have any ideas on where I should look for fossils, Central Fl Region?
  20. I am attaching photos of a fossil found in a cold water spring in Texas, that I call the Luvasourus. You cannot really see everything in these pictures. The location in Texas where it was found (along with many others) is a spring with a water temp below 65 degrees. It is unique for Texas, and no one has ever seen anything quite like this. It has been reviewed by three Universities in Texas, a Paleontologist, and several others. At this point I have been told it is probably pre-dinosaur, possibly petrified, possibly a species of Brighstoneus, or even the claw of a raptor, and baby T-rex. No one knows, so posting on here to the REAL EXPERTS! I have collected fossils over 50 years. This is unique and need help. Any advice is appreciated. Side A: three footed claw foot with visible claws. One of the claws goes into side B. There is a space in between side a and b that looks like shale or limestone. Side B: Skull with teeth. Claw of Side A goes into the teeth of the skull. you must zoom in to see the teeth but two defined rows of teeth. Skull of ? The bottom circular piece fits directly into the space to the right, measuring 2.5". I believe this may be a petrified brain. In between side A and B is a space filled with what appears to be limestone or shale. The rock has a similar texture of that of a meteorite - burned looking, but caramel color, not black. In the pictures it does not show very well, but when you apply water to it, the appearance is caramel colored and looks like a clay has hardened on the mouth area of side B. When the artifact is wet, it takes on a caramel color, similar to a meteorite's color where it was burnt, but caramel colored. I will gladly do a facetime or video with someone who is an expert, as these pictures do not show everything very well. IMG 9255 - looking from nose back towards back of skull side B. IMG 9260 - side A - one of the claws of the foot. The claw is going into the teeth of side B. Zoom in to see two rows of teeth, and where the claw actually smashed the tooth. IMG 9264 - view of claw side A. Notice the dark brown areas. These areas turn caramel when wet. Notice the circular indention. This is where the leg of the claw would be located. IMG 9263 - Side B Skull. Notice from left to right = visible teeth on bottom, visible snout. Remove middle round portion and move to indented space to right bottom area - fits perfectly. The eye socket is located top middle, then back of skull. The Brighstoneus recently found has similar characteristics on the snout/nose area. I am not an expert, however I believe this is very important to someone. Please contact me if you have any questions.

    Turtle egg

    I've been finding what I believe are eggs of prehistoric animals mainly turtles or tortoises. I've been told they are rocks so I decided to sand one down and discovered what looks to be a turtle inside. I'm I have not been able to find others with turtles inside but realize they didn't hatch for a reason either they weren't fertilized or they were or died before they were hatched. Alsoi am currently homeless and do not have a lot of resources at my disposal (besides time) or the knowledge of what I'm doing. The larger egg has a brown leathery patch covering approx a quarter of the egg.

    Dromaeosaur bones question

    I am doing some research on dromaeosaur bones, and I only found limited data and pictures on the web. I am particularly looking for caudal vertebrae and ribs pictures and structures. So I make an attempt towards TFF members knowledge and data !
  23. Inspired by @daves64 pictures, I decided to try out a Dino Lite for myself. I tried the AF4915ZTL model. I knew I wanted image stacking capabilities, which Dino-Lite calls Extended Depth of Field (EDOF), Automatic Magnification Reading (AMR) since an accurate scale bar was a priority and a long working distance for larger specimens so that helped narrow down the model. There are definitely pros and cons about it, but I'll let the results do the talking. Taken using EDOF: Taken using EDOF as well: Taken using the Extended Dynamic Range (EDR) feature: Taken using EDR: Taken using EDOF: Taken using EDR:
  24. Why is Tyrannosaurus the only dinosaur that is mainly referred to by the genus name and the species name? I mean, nobody talks about T. horridus or D. longus but nobody also just talks about plain Tyrannosaurus.
  25. Hi everyone. I have a question, or rather I would like the opinion of all of you as fossil collectors and lovers of the life of the past, both amateurs and professionals. The truth has little that I entered the world of paleontology, and the truth does not cease to amaze; I have barely 5 or 6 months researching everything about life in the past, and throughout the months I always see the same debate between people that for sure, is nothing new for all of you. The problem of whether to collect fossils or not. I recently read right here in the forum about a very controversial paleontologist who repudiates the collection of all kinds of fossils, and a few days ago, once again the debate was ignited by the sale of a complete skeleton of a triceratops to an apparently private collector . I personally do not have fossils yet, but later if I want to buy some so I do not reject the idea of collecting, I find it a bit of conflict since in a certain part both positions have their apparent reason. For example, thanks to some private collectors several discoveries have been made. Just to give an example, I would mention Tullimonstrum that I think was discovered in a private collection and later studied, so it is a point in favor of those who collect fossils. But it is true that the private collection can also delay the process of studying the specimen since not all collectors are willing to lend their fossils, although in this part I believe that most of them would, but we must not forget that all people don't act the same. I can assume that the majority of collectors who do not lend their fossils (speaking of fossils of scientific importance, non-commercial and common) is because perhaps they occurred the fossils illegally, which is not a surprise, but I do not want to go into detail about illegal fossils. The purpose of this post is not to discuss, point out, or criticize anyone. From my point of view, both ideas are valid and have their good and bad points. But I really would like the opinion of you who have a lot of experience and who obviously have their personal fossils. Thank you all and a big hug.
