Howdy all, Found these on a beach in Panama city a few years ago and I'd appreciate some help identifying them. The first one I originally thought was just a piece of turtle shell, but later while examining it, I noticed the presence of a root canal, which leads me to believe this is some sort of tooth. The second one I saw in my pan, and I just paused, cause I wasn't expecting to find land mammal material. I want to place this as Archaeohippus, but I'm not sure.

I found some pictures of the Biomuseo in Panama City from when I visited a while back. Please excuse the blurry and unfocused photos, I was not the best with a camera back then! If you are ever traveling to Panama then this is a must-stop; it has plenty of information of both modern and prehistoric life, as well as the largest aquarium in Panama. Since Panama is a relatively new landmass (geologically speaking), its geology is mainly post-Cretaceous. When I eventually return here I will definitely be cataloguing the exhibits better, there are many more than what took pictures of.

Hi Everyone, this is my first post and I like to thank you for your information. I will be traveling to the US in October. I'm going to travel in my car from Los Angeles, las vegas, Flagstaff, Albuquerque, Amarillo, Oklahoma, Memphis, New Orleans, Panama City, Sarasota, and Orlando. I want to take advantage of that to do little fossil huntings across that sites. Obviously, I don't want to do something illegal or wrong while collecting. I was talking with some guy from natural science and tell me which is legal and which not. The original idea is to fossil collect near the road. Do you know where to find good fossils like ammonites, corals, shells, echinoderms, etc near roads? This will be my route. I'm not professional or the next Alan Grant or Charig. I only want one specimen or two from every place if possible. Thanks to everyone, sorry for my English. If you tell me where to stop near the road or taking a detour for a mile will be alright. I have already some point marked but you're the bosses, boys and Girls!!!
