    Mammoth Tooth--Juvenile?

    I was super excited to find this over the weekend because I'm pretty confident this is my first fairly complete mammoth tooth (although an earlier misidentification tonight is keeping me humble haha). But it's a lot smaller than I expected. Juvenile? Baby? Or can an adult Columbian mammoth have teeth this small? Please excuse the moss. Haven't had a chance to clean this one up yet.
  3. In everyone who has been or frequents the Peace river in your opinion is it worth the trip? I’ve been many times and it seems like many of the good spots are all but tapped. I know there are always new fossils eroding out of the banks but still is it worth it for sifting?

    Mammoth patella?

    Found in South Texas. I still have a hard time distinguishing between more rounded proboscidean bones, even after looking at the University of Michigan's excellent mastodon examples. I think this one best resembles a patella, but I'm unsure
  5. I found these on the beach in South Carolina while searching for shark teeth. Im confident in the ancient horse tooth, but the other two, I’m not sure… any help would be greatly appreciated! I was told the tooth with the roots could be camel and also told the other piece would likely be a broken piece of a mammoth molar.

    Texas Fossils!!!

    Recent finds from Texas! Ammonites from the Goodland limestone, petrified wood and ice age stuff bank gravel of the Brazos river, either Beaumont or Lissie formations, or from a terrace deposit. The rib is mammoth/mastodon, the vertebra and hoof core bison, the antler is likely whitetail deer, and the teeth are horse and bison, with the small one I think a 3-toed horse based on the images I looked up.
  7. Found at a land site in Sarasota we have to go back tomorrow to excavate the rest there is so much more bone in the ground!! Could somebody please tell me what this is I'm leaning towards mammoth or Mastodon maybe a juvenile

    Vacant lot find.

    I came across this in a pile rocks under and around a tree in a vacant lot. Reminds me of a large bone. Thanks in advance for your time.

    Bone id

    Hello! Found in beach, in 2014. It's a mastodon/mamooth feet bone? Local: Praia do Cassino/Rio Grande/ RS/BRASIL Thanks in advance. Flávio Pereira
  10. Mammoths and other large animals survived in the north much longer than previously believed. New DNA research indicates that the climate, not humans, led to the demise of these large creatures, Norway Science, January, 2022 The open access paper is: Wang, Y., Pedersen, M.W., Alsos, I.G., De Sanctis, B., Racimo, F., Prohaska, A., Coissac, E., Owens, H.L., Merkel, M.K.F., Fernandez-Guerra, A. and Rouillard, A.,2021. Late Quaternary dynamics of Arctic biota from ancient environmental genomics. Nature, 600(7887), pp.86-92. It concludes that mammoths survived in continental northeast Siberia until 7,300 BP; North America until 8,600 BP; and the Taimyr Peninsula as late as 3,900 BP. Yours, Paul H.

    toe bone?

    When I picked this up I thought it very reminiscent of a mammoth toe bone. It is covered with what looks like a sandstone crust, the piece is very heavy, not at all like any sandstone I have ever come across. Any ideas? Thanks for any info you may have.

    Fragment of a Mammoth Tooth

    Large Bone Fragment

    I found this out of an eroded gravel and sand bluff. It was in the same general area where Collumbian Mammoth bones have been found. Any way of figuring out what type of animal this is from? Thanks

    Peace River Visit X 2

    Out to the Peace River, FL twice this week, Tuesday & Saturday. Was busy tracking down an ID for what turned out be an eagle or large hawk toe bone. With that done and a trip out yesterday I thought I would combine the two visits into one trip report. The weather was perfect both days with temps in the mid 80*s. The water flow and level were excellent and visibility great. It was easy to see the bottom and anything laying there. A shot of the morning paddle to the dig site - Got there and started digging with the first good find being the phalanx or toe bone mentioned above: The usual array of small shark teeth kept a steady flow into the sifter and then along came a small antler followed by a chunk of mammoth tooth and a turtle leg spur. There was also a large bone piece that may be part of an alligator maxilla. An armadillo scute and turtle scute rounded out the day for variety. I usually take a break and do a walk around the area where I am hunting just looking to see if anything interesting is sitting on the bottom. This day I was surprised to see two perfect pieces of a turtle plastron or underside. I picked them up in about two feet of water and was surprised how clean they were. They are obviously modern, but I kept them was my son has an oddity and taxidermy business and will surely find a buyer for them. Later I came up with a rounded bone that I think may be a patella. The only one I could find at the size of the specimen is bear. I will be doing more research on this one and may post it in the ID section for help. Headed home in the late afternoon and took a few more pictures of the river. In the first you can see how clear the water is, notice the branches on the bottom. In the last photo you can see can see three Ibis sitting in the tree over the river - its a good idea not to paddle under them! Yesterday turned out to be another great day with some exciting finds. The morning turned up probably the largest piece of antler I have found at 4" long and 1.5" around. About mid morning a Tapir tooth with roots popped up along with a partial vert that I have yet to identify. Shark teeth continued to appear in each clean out. Took my break for a walk around and suddenly came upon what seems to be the rest of the turtle plastron/underside shell pieces from the poor deceased turtle I found part of on Tuesday - Now I really have a package for my son's collection! To my pleasant surprise the afternoon turned up another Tapir tooth crown and a 1/2 crown. A dolphin tooth and a half of another one wound up in the sifter a little later. Continuing the Dolphin theme a periotic also managed to turn up. Another vert came up but it is probably too damaged and encrusted to be able to ID, but I kept it anyway. A small set of modern deer teeth also appeared. Some photos of the two days worth of finds - First group -left side - cup of miscellaneous shark teeth,3 tapir teeth/crowns, one dolphin tooth, one partial dolphin tooth, dolphin periotic right side - Snaggle tooth shark, tiger shark, lemon shark Some of the larger finds - Left side - Gator maxilla (?), two turtle leg spurs, mammoth tooth chunk, two small pieces of ivory Right side - Antlers, unk vert, armadillo scute, patella(?) It was a rewarding two days and I am looking forward to getting back next week!
  15. Found this a few years back on a beach in the North Carolina Outer Banks, near Emerald Isle. Roughly 5 cm long. I think it looks similar to some fragments of mastodon tooth enamel I've seen on this site, but I'm not sure if I'm on the right track with that thinking. The "back" side (photo 3) looks less like a fossil and more like a lumpy rock, but the striated side has me wondering. Would very much appreciate ideas and input!

    Bone fossil ID?

    Hi, I found this fossil in a field in Essex. The surface has a grain and if you look at the ends you can see tiny pore holes going through it like you get in bone. I’m wondering if this could be a piece of mammoth bone?

    big knee joint bone

    Please can you help me identify this fossil bone (the size of the pocket is about 10 cm)
