All I believe I found what woodbine formation animal I found the vertebrae was from in north tx. looking through all fossils from general area I found with little research found that I had croc skutes fossils. Here is pics and any experts please chime in. I tumbled and polished some of the scutes so that’s why one or 2 look like this. My bad thought was some cool metallic iron ore etc Wish I picked up more. I didn’t know what hole rocks were. Construction already destroyed animals fossil which I believe possibly a partial or whole animal remains.

I'm interested in a few of these turtle fossils supposedly found in the Neuse river in North Carolina. They are also labeled as Cretaceous. Do you think this is accurate or could they be from another age and or locality?

Is this a radius bone, please?
Cris Tang posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Good afternoon, I watched a bone on a online auction pattform. The seller didn't mention the bone belongs to which part of Spinosaurus. After that, I checked on the internet. And I found a smiliar bone called radius . So I would like ask for opinion here. Please take a look for the pictures. Thank you.jpeg.96ee247df2aa19a84ea6c127a727f08e.jpeg)

Hello, everyone! So, a little while a ago I was working on digging up a fossil, and found this interesting fossil (tooth?). Right now I have it catalogued as an Archaeotherium tooth. And I was just wondering if it really is an Archaeotherium tooth? Thanks! Cheers and Shalom, -Micah

Pulled this from roughly 3-4 feet deep in my backyard on the far west/nw edge of San Antonio. Found a rock bed as I was digging. Odd because until then the soil was actually soil…it was dark and was easy to shovel. I’ve dug holes all around my property and at many other spots around this area and I’ve always hit a very solid layer of limestone before even getting a foot deep. So 3 feet was noteworthy. And that was about 8 months ago. It took me that amount of time to uncover this one. It’s a hair shy of 2lbs4oz/ just over 1kg. Any thoughts on it?

Mud fossil from large cluster formation of limestone seem like is a blade of grass growing on to see pictures
Austin2000 posted a topic in Fossil ID
I'm not joking about this but these these I thought were like regular fossils I picked them up and they like they didn't feel right I had gloves on rubber gloves you know the ones workman's gloves and if I put them in a different bag and when I got home I picked them up and I put them in water the vinegar and stuff and they got like really slimy and I just put them on the side and I got him in the steel Tupperware container and another tupperware container with muriatic acid and the other one you know so in case they do get out whatever I don't know I know it sounds funny but it is what it is the I don't know if they are mummified the worms or whatever they are but they're not fossilized and they're not like petrified and if you put water on them they'll get soft I don't know if they're like alive after millions of years I doubt it but there is a blade of grass growing out of one of the clumps of mud which is weird I was thinking about putting some water on it you know to see what grows it could be a grass seed from some you know like from when they dug them up but it's in I mean I don't understand how it could have got in that watch cluster formation because I because it broke open when they dumped it so I mean it'd be cool to see what kind of plant it would grow. The other photos are of the other mud dirt items that were in the pocket of the cluster which was probably about 6 ft aacro

Whilst on a dog walk in Bedfordshire, this exposed fossil was found and I wondered if I could get some help identifying. Looking at the structure being a honeycomb style my first reaction was bone of some kind but any help would be hugely appreciated. Some smaller pieces have hair like lines across the fossil.

Hey guys, I saw this listed as a suchomimus tooth. I know suchomimus tooth is quite rare and I don’t have much experience with it. Do you guys think it’s really a suchomimus tooth?

I grabbed this rock as a friend was tossing it out of a flower pot, mostly because it initially looked like petrified wood. After studying it some, I don't think it is, but I am not certain how to identify pet wood (am researching how to do this, though)? I don't see regular patterns on the ends of the rock, which I would expect to find in petrified wood. Is that correct? Found in Alabama, but no idea where it's origin is, since it was in a flower pot. See last photo for size comparison to a water bottle lid - it's a small rock. I checked it for transparency and some edges are transparent but not the entire rock. Thanks! Ramona

Hey guys, I'm new to this site and forum. I was just at Tybee island in Georgia and found these on the beach. I was wondering if someone can tell me if these are shark teeth. I've found some down in Venice beach in FL before but these look different. Almost as if the root broke off but the curiosity is killing me. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
