Found this piece of fossil bone on gravel bar on brazos river gravel bar. Close to Rosharon Texas. Maybe not enough bone to identify but here it is.

Picked up the below bone a few weeks ago on a Peace River, FL hunt. My first impression was that it was a partial vertebrae. Second thought was a patella? After much searching I couldn't come up with a match that I believed was close enough to provide an ID. What I find most interesting is the protruding bump on one side and the corresponding indentation on the other. Maybe a tail bone? The specimen measurements: Inches = 3.75" long x 1.5" wide x 1.25" tall MM = 87mm long x 42mm wide x 38mm tall The ruler shown is MM.

Had a good trip down to the river this weekend. Found several pleistocene things. I've been identifying things, and I'm going to try to post them in a trip post later this week. But very unsure about this one. Right now I don't even have a good guess.

This is another bone I picked up last week in the Peace River. I have been trying to ID it but think maybe it will have to be put in the "chunkasaurus" pile. I was leaning toward a section of sloth or other mammal tibia. Any help would be appreciated. Bone is almost 6" long x 3" at the wide end tapering to 1.25" and 2.5" high. The curvature and tapering of the bone is what led me to think possibly a section of sloth tibia.

Found this thick bone piece in a new jersey cretaceous creek and wonder if its possible to maybe id since one side has a distinct rough texture while the other is flatter and striated, I would guess either large turtle, mosasaur, or dinosaur. My friend joked its a theropod maxilary skull fragment, but we all know around here that material seems close to impossible to come across haha. Interested to hear any other thoughts.
