I have sometimes asked for ID assistance on what turned out to be rocks, so my expectations are tempered, but this looks super similar to dino bones I’ve worked on while volunteering at a local university. I took pictures of all sides. It has a sort of a palmwood look on one side but there are some curves and a point that remind me of a bone. I’ve never found anything like it. It broke into 2 pieces despite my gentle handling as I pulled it out of the bank along the Trinity River not far from DFW airport in Irving Texas, where the woodbine and Eagleford meet. I hope I have something cool (non-mollusk) for once. Haha! Not far from this, I found some neat pyrite nodules that I haven’t seen before.

Hello all, The rock pictured was picked up in Arizona, possibly while on the side of I-40 at a pit stop, we're actually not 100% sure because it was a number of years ago and by a family member (not me). It's just such an unusually shaped rock and oddly translucent in the light, haha sometimes it makes me think of a lump of petrified flesh. Any ideas what it might be? Thanks very much, (I lurk mostly but love this forum)
