I found this chunk of bone in the North Saskatchewan River near Edmonton, Alberta. I know it is only a small fragment but I was wondering if anyone might know what bone this piece came from. I don't know much about the anatomy of animals but to me it looks like possibly the mandibular Rami, or possibly scapula?

Another trip to a nice little spot I've found on the Trent River in Eastern North Carolina. My brother found the nice cow shark tooth which I've never seen come out of this spot before. Pleasant surprise, and some other nice fossils including a whale vertebrae & half of a shark vert.

Trying to do some organizing and labeling of these teeth that I have collected over the past 10 years. But first.... I'm hoping for confirmation of my opinions on some and help with a few that I'm not sure about. Most of these are from the Suwannee River but a few of the Makos are from Venice FL about a mile offshore in 17-23 feet of water. Thank you! Pretty confident of Mako for the group of six. Pretty confident of Auriculatus for the single (heartbreaker) (a very rare find for me from the Suwannee - by far the largest and brightest color shark tooth I've found there) Not sure about the two that resemble sand tiger or (mackerel?) I don't think they are sand tiger. Not sure about the two that have small cusp lets. I don't think they are Auriculatus

Hello, I'm a new member to the Fossil Forum, could someone please help me ID these teeth? I found the larger, blacker tooth this morning on a sandbar of a creek in Linn County, Iowa. My wife found the smaller tooth on the same little sandbar about a year ago. I have found several bison teeth in the many other locations I have walked up and down this river, but these two have been stumping me. These are the only teeth we have found so far that still have roots intact which leads me to believe that they did not travel very far in the creek. These may or may not be from the same animal, but two strange teeth from the same spot makes me wonder if that could be the case. The smaller one has a stylid, but even the small one is thicker than the bison teeth that I have. Two photos compare size to a modern bison jaw. Small tooth: Width: 26mm Thickness at top: 16mm Enamel height: 32mm Large tooth: Width:29mm Thickness at top: 27mm Enamel height: 14mm
