Hi again! Once again, my son was looking through the things we found last summer and found this piece. I think it is a piece of Dino bone with predation marks, but we also think it might be a piece of hadrosaur jaw. There is quite a lot of ironstone on the fossil though, so it could just be the ironstone playing tricks on us. If needed, I can post more photos to help with the id. The bone was found in the Horseshoe Canyon formation, in the Drumheller area, Alberta. Any input is greatly appreciated!

Today I was cleaning the baculites found on the last fossil trip, and found one VERY cool one. This segment looks to have clear and deep tooth holes in it. It is believed that mosasaurs fed on baculites, and the hole sizes would certainly agree with that.

From the album: Delaware Fossils
Belemnitella americana from the Maastrtichian of Delaware. This one is strangely rounded and scarred. Looks like something bit it and it lived long enough to heal over.© copyright 2021 Heather J M Siple

Hi there everyone! PLEASE help me figure out what the heck this thing is. I unearthed it in the Hell Creek formation of Montana, and it has been driving me crazy ever since I started prepping it. The preservation is pretty incredible, and one of the coolest things about it is a huge predation mark along one side. Looks like a tooth raked along the surface of whatever animal this belonged to leaving a deep, clean line. I honestly have no idea what this is. Best guess is part of a jaw because it's so sharply angular. Could be part of a frill but the texture on all sides are each very different from one another. It also has a really elegant taper and gets pretty thin in some areas. I really appreciate your help! Also, please excuse my raggedy looking hands. I can get a little careless with the PaleoBond. -Lauren
