Hi all, does anyone know why fossils from Cave bears usually are very lightly colored? The dentin and enamel in their teeth also look like they've hardly even been fossilized.

Pleistocene Juvenile Cave Bear Jaw
Lucid_Bot posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
This is a Pleistocene Cave Bear jaw from Romania. I'd like to know if this is authentic and if there has been restoration? Thanks.

.These fossils are from Romania. They look like crustaceans ichnofossils. If these Eocene or Oligocene fossils are really traces of crustaceans then what genus did make them? If you think that you can identify them write your opinion here. Thank you very much.

We have found thousands of these little button shaped fossils all in one area. They range in size from .5cm to 2cm but most are right at about 1.5cm. Most of them are nearly round, about .5cm thick in the middle, but taper to the edge, very much like a curved button or a pillow. On the outer surface most look just like overlapping layers, but when broken open across the middle they have a very fine spiral structure. I would very much like to identify them.

A couple of days ago a new Azhdarchid Pterosaur was described from Transylvania in Romania. Named Albadraco Tharmisensis, it is know from a couple of beak fragments and a cervical vertebra & the abstract is linked below with a picture of the fossils. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0195667119301016

Dear TFF Members, these are the fossils I found in Humor, Romania - this is a village situated in Bukovina. They come from a slope at one of the banks of Humor river - from the point indicated on the map. I have no idea which geological era the rocks come from (I just saw a nice place with multiple rocks and I started looking for fossils), so it's hard for me to determine what I have actually found The first one looks a little bit like Calamites?

Hi everyone, I was wondering if any of those stones might be pieces of dinosaur bones (or any bones, in fact). They were found in Romania, in a valley of the river close to Hateg. If anyone replies to my question, I have a request: could you please send me a private message? I'm on holidays and I have limited access to a computer, but I receive messages from TFF on my mobile phone, so I will know whether I should keep the stones or get rid of them Thanks a lot for help

Ursus spelaeus Cave Bear Molar Tooth Transylvania, Romania Devensian Stage, Pleistocene Period (20,000 Years Old) The cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) was a species of bear that lived in Europe and Asia during the Pleistocene and became extinct about 24,000 years ago during the Last Glacial Maximum. Both the word "cave" and the scientific name spelaeus are used because fossils of this species were mostly found in caves. This reflects the views of experts that cave bears may have spent more time in caves than the brown bear, which uses caves only for hibernation. Cave bears were comparable in size to the largest modern-day bears. Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Carnivora Family: Ursidae Genus: Ursus Species: †U. spelaeus -
Hello there paleontologists, fossil enthusiast, and everything in between. If you couldn't tell this is the first content I've ever made on the fossil forum so please excuse errors and, or inexperience I apologize in advance. Here is my collection of display fossils as well as modern bones keep in mind this is purely what I have on display I keep the vast majority of fossils I posses in storage with lots of support such as bubble rap and various other materials to ensure complete security of precious peeks into our planet's history. If you have any questions or comments feel free to ask as you please. These are all authentic fossils 2 have been directly seen by a professional (Ursus sp. & Unidentified Dinosaur Cretaceous Rib) The Dactylioceras sp. is very clearly a real specimen however there was no authority on it's authenticity the two Hadrosaur fragments are authentic as well one purchased with it's card of authenticity by D.J Parsons and the other was purchased from the very same hunter whom discovered the Cretaceous rib section. (Note: individual specimen content will be released in time)

An incredible specimen excavated from Brasso Romania authentic/orginal fossil. -
A tooth with strong affinities to Carcharodontosaurids was found in Romania. Valanginian age would put it much older than those found in the Kem Kem of Morocco. Tooth looks like it's in great condition and indeed does look like one of those out of the Kem Kem.

Hello from Barlad, Romania! I have the pleasure to announce that an important frament of Deinotherium sp. was discovered recently by my friend and menthor dr. Lauretiu Ursachi from Vasile Parvan Museum (Barlad, Romania). This is the second Deinotherium discovered in Romania since the one found by G. Stefanescu in 1894. Here are a few articles: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3142189/7-million-year-old-fossil-elephant-ancestor-east-Romanian-village.html http://www.romaniajournal.ro/bones-of-7-million-old-elephants-grandsire-discovered-in-vaslui/ http://www.romania-insider.com/skeleton-of-7-million-year-old-elephant-ancestor-found-in-eastern-romania/151528/

Hello! I am a young enthusiast, recently a volunteer for the Paleontology Research Program of the Natural Sciences Section of Vasile Parvan Museum, Barlad, Moldavia, Romania. I work under the supervision of Ph. D. c Laurentiu Ursachi, Museum Vasile Parvan, Barlad, Natural Sciences Section. The Museum Collections owns skeletal elements of Miocene and Cuaternar fossil mamals. At the moment we try to identify some teeth that may be a Chalicotherium and I have found some interesting bibliography on the forums. TY Fruitbat if you read this! We also started a voluntary program and I am in charge of this. If anyone wishes to give us some help in research we would be happy to establish contact. Please bare with me, because I am a newbie!
