I found this on the Gulf Coast at Orange Beach AL after a storm. A few minutes later my daughter found a similar one and the same spot. It doesn’t really look like any shark tooth fossils. Any ideas?

Hello all. I've tried and tried to get the ID on this on my own and just don't have the experience. I dug this out of a gravel layer in the Peace River in Hardee County, Florida two weeks ago (early January, 2023). Some of the contours seem like an astragalus (horse, camel, ...) but the more museum photos I see the less sure I am. Thanks in advance for any information you are willing to share. The pics are a little overexposed (intentionally) to show the shape, so the color appears lighter in the pics than in reality. Thanks!

Another beach fossil find. I’m not to sure but thought it might be a worn hoof core. Maybe camelid? I defer to the forum experts. As usual any help is greatly appreciated.

I found this on a recent trip to the Peace River here in Florida. I'm trying desperately to identify it. Is this a piece of petrified wood? I haven't read anywhere online that petrified wood has been found anywhere in Florida so I'm kinda stumped.

This is an eagle ray toothplate from the Suwannee River. Most often, these toothplates are disarticulated into single teeth. Note the wear on the occlusal surface, probably from crushing hard-shelled food items. Family MYLIOBATIDAE Subfamily MYLIOBATINAE Myliobatis sp.

This is a cervical (neck) vertebra - a C3 or C4 - from a Pleistocene camelid from Gilchrist County, Florida. The species name is uncertain, but lamine (llamas) camels were the dominant species in the Florida Pleistocene. More images at: http://www.thefossil...be/#entry599855© -Harry Pristis 2015

This one is the smallest dugong tooth in my drawer; most are substantially larger. Manatee teeth are not rare among Florida fossils. Dugong teeth are not common. (This image is best viewed by clicking on the button on the upper right of this page => "other sizes" => "large".)© Harry Pristis 2015
