  1. Hey, been a while, so i decided to start a new topic for the new year. Headed out on Thursday 25/01 to the river shores in Antwerp again. First hunt of the year since i've worked non-stop so far and a contractor is rebuilding our house.. It was great being out again so i was already pleased on beforehand, finding some nice teeth made it even better 😁 here's some in situ pics.. Rolled C. hastalis C. hastalis in excellent shape my first Parotodus benedeni ever, not in great shape but an awesome find anyway 😀 Finally a complete 6cm C. hastalis VID20240125131132.mp4 And some random mammal teeth Had a great first hunt of the year, and I already feel like going back! oh yeah, here's the whole lot cleaned up.. Surprised about how many different species i got covered this time 😄 Grtz, Dries

    Florida Mammal Teeth

    Below are two Pleistocene mammal teeth from "river gravels" in Florida. I have to further information on their age or locality, unfortunately. The left was merely identified as a "mammal tooth", and I strongly suspect it is from Trichechus manatus, but I have very little experience with mammal dentition and as such thought it would be best to check with someone with greater expertise in the field first. The right tooth was identified as a "peccary tooth", but given the fact that a number of tayassuids were present in Pleistocene Florida I wondered if the tooth could be identified to a genus, or better yet a species level. I will now take the liberty of "@ing in" a few people: @Harry Pristis and @Shellseeker Thanks in advance for any proposed ID's Othniel

    Bone mammal

    Hello What kind of mammal (if possible) is this bone head? Maybe it's medieval, for example? Thank you and best regards Daniel
  4. 1 more from the same location, a vertebra. Photos 1 & 2 are the front and back, while 3 & 4 show top and bottom. One end appears flat, while the other is crudely pointed. Axis vert? I was thinking small mammal. Thoughts? thanks!
  5. hello, I have 2 items from Chesapeake Beach, Maryland, USA. Exposures are Miocene. These were found as float, on the beach. The first is a jaw section, approx. 8cm in length, with a broken piece of one tooth present. Porpoise? The second is a tooth crown, approx 18x13 mm and two ridges. Photos of the chewing surface and underside are presented. Manatee? thanks!
  6. Recently found this quite large and heavy (piece of) bone by the Schelde river shores in Antwerp, Belgium. Most pieces that wash up here are Mio/Pliocene but actually most Neogene layers are represented in the area as well as Pleistocene and more recent. I'm thinking whale because of the size, but honestly i don't have a clue. Measurements are 22cm x 10cm x 5cm thanks in advance! Dries

    Mammal tooth

    Hello, i have this still unlabled mammal tooth in my collection. I found it in Zaanse Schanz, Netherlands on a path named : de kwakels. Rigth next to the finding location is a sheep pasture, so its probably a modern sheep tooth.

    Mammal Jaw? Teeth?

    Hi, I found this fossil in our basement and I remember that we were told as kids that it’s a mammoth tooth but now I don’t think so. It was found in Belgium I believe.

    Fossilized mammal

    Wondering if this could be some kind of animal?

    Mammal fossil?

    Florida mammal ID

    Found this tooth on my last trip in a creek super small find but still curious on what it is. Found it near the peace river. My thoughts are that its mammal maybe tapir or deer.

    Peace river fossil ID

    Found this fossil in a creek during my last trip my guess is that its a whale tooth or some kind of tooth. But I was wondering if anyone knows what it is? Along with possibly how old it could be? I found it on a creek near the peace river.

    Pleistocene mammal ulna

    This bone has been tucked away for years. Just waiting for a rainy day to seek out an id. All I know is that it was found in SE Texas Pleistocene river gravel. Looks like an ulna. I can safely rule out bison and horse. Don’t think it’s deer. I’m kinda leaning toward carnivore, but really not sure.

    Possible Horse Tooth?

    Hello everyone! I went to the beach yesterday, and came back with my first mammal fossil...maybe? It certainly feels like one, but I'm very new to this and am not sure what exactly it could be. The waves were just bringing it in when I spotted it. It was found in Northeast Florida. My understanding is that fossilized horse teeth are pretty common, so that would be my best guess. But when I look up images of fossilized horse teeth, most of them have a very rectangular shape, some with a slight curve to them. Could it be a tooth from a different mammal, or maybe even something completely different? I'm looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts. Thanks!

    What type of tooth is this?

    I found this tooth on the beach in Ventura, California after a big swell event. Any thoughts?

    ? Miocene mammal tooth

    Hello Everyone, we are looking for help in identifying a fossilized tooth that was found in deposits dated back to the miocen-badenian age in Poland, Europe. That site is knows from Gigantopecten mussels fossils and Carcharias, Galeocerdo, Diplodus fish teeth but such tooth has never been found there before. Thank you for any identification ideas.

    Unknown vertebra

    My boyfriend dredged the Pacific Ocean for a living. This vertebra was scooped up off the ocean floor. It has barnacles on it. What animal could it be from?

    Mammal teeth ID, Peace River, Florida

    Next grouping is mammal teeth! Hoping to get confirmation on these few; my others are quite similar, so once labels are confirmed I can positively identify the rest, as well. I will divide this into multiple posts - 1 per tooth - to hopefully make it easier to read. 1. camelid? Palaeolama mirifica
  20. Back again! It's too much fun figuring things out. I'm running out of shadowboxes, though, so will have to wait before tackling my next batch. 1. 2x unknown metacarpals/metatarsals as identified by our guide. Both are 'spongy'.

    Mammal teeth ID

    Hey, i got some mammal teeth ID vibe going thx to @citronkitten's post. I'm kinda in the dark about these two teeth. As they wash up on the Schelde river shores in Antwerp i'm not sure on their age tho. Both look like front teeth to me. 1. 2,9cm x 1,3cm x 0,8cm 2. 2,6cm x 0,8cm x 0,6cm Thx in advance!

    mammal teeth work in progress

    From the album: Peace River, Florida 26/12/23

    Next shadow box from Peach River 26/12/23: Mammal Teeth. Teeth are hard! Still working on IDs, but this is current progress.
  23. Hello there here is another skull I’ve seen online and I’m interested in. Any red flags? I don’t have much info I’m afraid… Any and all help is very welcome!

    Mammal Bone on UK beach

    Hi Everyone, I went fossil hunting last weekend on the Norfolk coast, UK. A long walk up and down the beach of Happisburgh. Well known for its Ice Age mammal finds. I found a few different pieces, but this one in particular caught my eye. It's been rolled around in the surf somewhat, but I was hoping someone might be able to ID this for me? Because it does retain some shape still, it kind of looked like the end of a femur or tibia? But it does also resemble an ankle bone from a large animal, possibly Mammoth, Rhino or Bison? What do we think? Thanks in Advance, Jim.

    Mystery canine from Virginia

    What appears to be a fossil canine tooth from Virginia, USA. out of a layer that typically produces marine fossils from the late Oligocene-early Miocene. It measures ~2.5” from tip of crown to the base of the root, has some sort of cementum or ossification at the base of the root. The enamel is smooth with the presence of a carina on both cutting edges. As you can see, there is very little wear to the tooth, which makes me wonder if it was a juvenile or is that indicative of the type of prey it ate. I initially thought it had to be a whale/odontocete tooth, but the smooth enamel with the presence of the carina has me second guessing that ID. Could it be from a pinniped? Large cat? Something else? This one has me stumped. Any thoughts are appreciated.
