Last summer, we found these bits of bone, and I have been trying to id them. They were found in the Drumheller area, in the horseshoe canyon formation. The reason I was curious about them is because of how thin they were. They also have some really weird patterns on its surface. Below the surface is jet black. Also, there is a very tiny amount of marrow(that’s what I think it is at least). Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Joy.

My son was looking through the things we found this summer, and we found these pieces of similar colour and texture. There are three of these pieces in total, and they all have these white markings on the side that seems blue. We think this is bone, but we are beginners and don’t have enough experience to say for sure. If I took a wild guess, I’d say they are pieces of tooth? It seems there is a shiny surface which might be enamel on both side of it, and it is kind of dense. These were found in the Drumheller area.

Hadrosaur trackway contribution
dinosaur man posted a topic in Partners in Paleontology - Member Contributions to Science
I have recently been looking at some of my photos from trips and found photos of when I was in Alberta in 2018. I saw a photo of a Hadrosaur footprint from a trackway in Dinosaur Provincial Park that me and my brother found. I also read not to long ago that no big trackways have been found in this area so I decided to give the information and location to the Palaeontologist at the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller, Alberta. I was responded by Dr. Caleb Brown, he told me that I was most likely right and it was probably Hadrosaur. I am currently waiting for him to reply again to see what he thi- 27 replies

Hi! I'm new here. I found this fossil recently near Drumheller, Alberta Canada. I think it's a vertebrae but I can't seem find example images of anything like it due to its asymmetrical shape. It was found near both other marine (bi-valve) fossils and other bone fragments. Not sure if it comes from a dinosaur or marine reptile. Thanks for your help! Cheers, Matt

What species of Tyrannosaur did this tooth replica come from?
dinosaur man posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi I found this with the rest of my fossil replicas and was wondering if it could be a Rex tooth or another type of Tyrannosaur tooth. I don’t know if I can post this here or get an ID on it since it’s a replica but I got it at the Royal Tyrell Museum in Drumheller, Canada it’s a replica of one of there specimens. And I just wanted to know what it could be since it seemed strange to me on how skinny and long it is, Thank you!! -
Hello everyone, I'm going to be in Alberta soon and I was hoping to do some fossil hunting. I read on a previous post to this forum that dinosaur fossils can be found in the Horseshoe Valley, but I was wondering if anyone has any other suggestions near Drumheller, or if they could provide any tips for this locale. I'm aware of the laws regarding fossil collection as well, all specimens will be catch and release. I'm just trying to fulfill a dream I've had since watching Jurassic Park 20 years ago haha. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

I found this piece of dinosaur bone last summer while I was surface collecting in the Horseshoe Canyon area near Drumheller, Alberta. It wasn’t until I was home and cleaned the piece that I noticed what looks like tooth marks on the bone. Is it tooth marks on the bone? I know this is stretch but any idea what type of bone this may be (rib, leg, etc.)? Thanks for looking at this. Cherise

I was going through my old fossil collection with my 4 year old and I came across a bone that potentially has something, tooth?, embedded into it. The piece of fossilized bone is ~6x3 cm. About 2cm thick. Looks like any old fragment one might find laying around. When viewed from the side the periosteum? appears to be deformed and crushed. Embedded into crushed portion of bone is a fragment that looks like it could be a tooth or a piece of a tooth? The embedded fragment is symmetrical, flat (~4mm thick) and is curved. Width is ~17mm. I can only see about 7mm of it before it is obs

As above. After the silly Alioramus(?) locality mistake I made, I have taken on the colossal and necessary task of auditing all my locality info. Here's an area that has me stumped. Does anyone know if there's any late Cretaceous dino-bearing formations in Drumheller besides Horseshoe Canyon? -

Hi everyone, Another mysterious fossil from my collections. I found this perched on the side of a hill in Drumheller, Alberta. My first non-dinosaur fossil found in that area. It looks like a flower or leaf? Would appreciate any opinion or suggestion, no matter how far-fetched! Thanks, Regards
