    Juvenile Mastodon Partial Tooth

    I bought this tooth fragment last year. It was advertised as a partial juvenile mastodon tooth, but I honestly have no idea if that's correct. I hardly spent anything on it so it's not a huge deal if it's something else entirely. Thoughts?

    ID help, please and thanks!

    Almost everything was found yesterday at Peace River (FL). I’m still new to fossil hunting. I do my research but still need help - there’s a lot to learn. TIA for anyone who takes the time to let me know what I’ve got here! In order, I think I have: -Deer ankle bone -Scapula? Turtle shell? -Glyptodont scutes -Horse/camel incisor? -Manatee/dugong tooth? -Shells (I know nothing about these but love these two-wanted to share) -Gator/plant? Pattern is only on one side -Deer tooth? -Camel/deer tooth? -Stumped - too many teeth look too similar…tapir? -Recent shark tooth finds (contents of the final picture were found on land in Sarasota county and not at the river) I think that’s more than enough for now I have quite a few horse/bison/camel/llama/etc teeth that I also need help differentiating, but I want to try a little more before asking for help. Any good charts/info that help point out differences in these would be greatly appreciated! Adding some pics of recent shark tooth finds just for the fun of sharing. If you see anything special (rare/pathos/etc) that I need to know about, please let me know! Again, thanks in advance for all the help! Any ideas appreciated - if better pics/measurements are needed, just ask

    Is this an Auriculatus?

    The seller states that this is a ~13 mm posterior O. auriculatus tooth from Bone Valley. It looks similar to the lower posteriors in this paper, but I would like to get a more educated opinion before adding it to my collection. Unfortunately, these are the highest quality images given.

    Wood? Venice beach find

    Hi guys, found a big hunk of fossil something this morning on the beach. Flat on one side, porous on the other, eight inch fragment of something. Is it wood, turtle shell, a weird rock? Tried to get some good images of the texture of the flat side. I imagine the textures are totally recognizable to someone in the know.
  8. Looks can be deceiving. Is this a chunk of sloth tooth? Looks similar to my other chunk but not quite the same. Found in Peace River (FL). TIA!
  9. Good day on Peace River yesterday…did I find what I think I found? I’m sure I did, but I’ve also been sure before thanks in advance!

    Bison/cow tooth?

    Hello, I was fossil hunting a creek in north Florida yesterday and along with finding what I believe is our first meg out of this creek, we found a strange tooth that I believe is bovine or camel. (This is in inches, I couldn't find my tape measure- 1 inch~2 1/2 cm)

    Stingray from bone valley boneyard

    Does anyone know how large this ray might have been?
  14. So, had planned to hit the Peace River yesterday for the first time this season. I set my alarm for 6:30am and loaded up the truck. Went to sleep dreaming of the river. ALARM BLARES! WAKE UP! TIME TO DRINK COFFEE AND GET READY! WOO-HOO! WAIT. Something is wrong. THE ALARM WON'T TURN OFF. PANIC. ADRENALINE. CONFUSION. HALF-AWAKE FUMBLING. ALARM CONTINUES TO BLARE. NOW WIDE AWAKE. ALARM APP FREEZES and PHONE FREEZES, WHILE ALARM BLARES. TURN OFF PHONE TO SILENCE THE ALARM. Relief that the loud alarm has been silenced. Look at the clock on wall. 4:30AM.....!!!!! WTF? The alarm went off two hours early. Phone reboots, double-check the alarm time, it was correctly set to 6:30am, but for some unknown reason it went off at 4:30am. I need more sleep than this to hunt the river, so now the Peace trip is canceled. 4:30am is a little too early for me to "just stay up" and I desperately needed that extra 2-hours of sleep. Due to anger, confusion, and adrenaline making me WIDE AWAKE, it takes me a full hour to fall back asleep. Wake up at 8:30am, ticked off about the alarm fiasco, and the truck is still loaded up. After a quick discussion with the wife, we decide to salvage the day and take a paddling trip closer to home. So, we hit the Chassahowitzka river and spent the day having a lovely paddle and a picnic lunch. Ended up making lemonade from lemons, and we had a nice day on the river......just without any fossil-hunting. Peace River will have to wait until next week. Hell or highwater, my kayak get wet in the Peace next week. Thanks for reading my mini-rant. LOL.

    Mammoth or Mastodon vertebrae?

    Was in Florida for a long weekend so I spent some time in the Peace River near Arcadia, Fl and picked this up. By size and basic shape it seems like a mastodon or mammoth vertebrae, but I haven't been in the area enough to tell and granted it’s very worn. Thoughts?
  16. Hello everyone. I'm trying to figure out what these things are. I find them very regularly looking for shark's teeth on SE Florida beaches near Jupiter and Juno. My posted image has the front and back of a few different specimens, stark white and some grey. Does anyone know what these are? Thanks, TWB

    Coprolite?

    Found this digging in Peace River, central Florida. I wondered if it could be coprolite, but if it is I was wondering from what animal. Any information would be appreciated. Other finds from the same area included dugong bone, turtle shell, mammal teeth (bison, tapir, horse), armadillo scute, and lots of shark teeth.

    Treasures that might be trash

    Hello, I go hunting for unusual things every weekend in NE Florida. I have a small collection of things I have not identified. I believe the top row are all of the same material. I’ve tried to remove the sand that is encrusting them without too much luck. Any ideas? Thank you! Kristin
  21. I found these fossils in the peace river last summer and was going through them again today, but I cannot figure out what species these fossils come from.
  22. So found a sloth tooth today - dunno which sloth though! Also found 2 toe bones that I’m quite sure are ALSO sloth and associated to the tooth too. @Harry Pristis @Shellseeker Sloth Tooth: Toe 1) Toe 2)

    Peace River - multiple IDs needed

    So was out hunting yesterday - and I will definitely be making a trip report because I came away with a ridiculous number of amazing finds. But before that - I need ids! So to start off - 1) Found a massive astragalus. 2.5”/64mm. Matches Equus, but these astragalii I found a while ago were IDd as Equus and they are about half the size: One from yesterday: So is the new one Equus and my old ones are 3-toed? 2) Found a symphysis from some mammal. It’s still got the incisor roots, and an unerupted canine, but I can’t see the canine well enough to figure it out. Diagnostically though - it’s got part of the left mandible, showcasing the roots and sockets of the closest premolar (and one socket from the next) - and based on the distance I think it’s okay to eliminate herbivore (Or deer, horse, camel/llama, etc) due to knowing they have long snouts. So… carnivore? Any ideas what, if so? Measures 50mm/1.95” long and 30mm/1.2” wide. 3) Finally - pretty sure this is the tip of a Dire wolf canine, given root hole shape, the single carinae, lack of striations, etc - but I’d love confirmation or another ID. @Shellseeker @Harry Pristis @Brandy Cole Thanks all in advance!
