last week I had a cool find...with help from this forum we identified it as part of the lower jaw of a bison. I live in the interior of Alaska. wood bison use to live here but became nearly extinct 200 years ago. although in 2016 they did release a small herd back into the wild near bethel. also, there is a sandbar a few miles upriver that they have been digging. we had a flood that took out 20-50 feet of riverbank and the river is still receding. I returned to the spot that I found the first bone in yesterday and at the water's edge found an old animal vertebrae, when I checked today, I found two more vertebra and what i think is the second part of the jawbone. the vertabraes all fit together. i am heading back will post better pictures later

Found a pretty cool fossil yesterday- has what definitely looks like some fossil teeth in it, along with a tiny, almost shrimp or krill looking creature. Here are the photos- fossil is almost 8 centimeters tall- a little over 3 inches for my american friends. it’s a bit hard to measure the width cause it’s a little wonky shaped and math isn’t my strong suit… you’ll have to go with this for now.

Can ayone help ID this jaw with teeth? It is encrusted with oxidized blue-clay, and was found in a creek here in SW, MS. Tumbling has created the exposed parts.

Yesterday took Rockwood out to Grapevine lake to explore the Woodbine, we went on treacherous hike below spillway that may or may not have been restricted area. Spotted this in place where sun could have bleached it, didn't know what it was without glasses so stuck it in my pocket for not so safe keeping. Didn't make it back in one peice and it's driving me nuts trying to figure out what it came from or if it's fossil or not. I put the peices in order in one picture, the little strip of teeth goes middle.

My family and I found this along with a few other fragments in Cambria county Pennsylvania. It was on a gravel bar in the river. Paleozoic I believe. Any ideas?

I need help identifying this jaw bone with teeth. I only have the one picture but the molars are pretty distinctive and hopefully are enough. This was found in the Peace River, Florida. Thanks for any help!

I have usually looked for the bigger things at this site but this time focused on the small and in a different area. Didn't even realize what this was until I got home and put on my glasses and went through things, it's not in the best shape but hopefully someone can make out what it is. This was in Grayson marl Washita group.

Need some confirmation, or correction, on couple jaws found this week, same creek, does contain Pleistocene material. Pretty sure modern raccoon, but the other not positive it's beaver, no orange teeth, and I've never found a bone this dark in this creek. Could it be anything else fossil, like baby giant beaver?

Hi. All these are out of the ordinary finds for me and I need some help with IDing. I think I know, which means I am wrong and need help. Thanks as always for any feedback. 1. 100% retile tooth. It stinks that it is all beat up but I will take it! I am thinking croc but maybe plesiosaur 2. I believe this is a reptile toe bone? Anyone know what type? it a little over a half an inch

I found this mandible (I think) near Bloomington, Indiana over the weekend and was wondering if anyone could give me an ID on it. I believe it's the mandible of a rodent, but that's about as far as I get. Seems to large for a mouse or rat, but maybe a muskrat, shrew (if those are bigger?), or squirrel? And I'm guessing it's more recent rather than fossil?

Hey all, its been a while since I posted last. Due to the drought, the river is low so I went looking around. I was walking the river bank and stumbled on an area I can't make sense of. In an area about 15 ft across and 4 ft high there are bones and teeth everywhere. It appears as if there are multiple species of animals, but primarily I am finding a lot of what I think are cow jaws. It is located near a small college established in the 1850's. It is also located in an area that had a heavy native american population. I am attaching some photos I took and would like some input on animal type, how old they may be (I know that may be difficult). I am taking the day off tomorrow to really take a good look and do a bit of digging. Any help would be appreciated. I am sure I will post more pictures as I get into this further. Thank you.

Hello everyone, I was in Big Brook nj for a little while today and found this interesting bone. I'm not to sure if it's identifiable but it does remind me of a jaw section like a mosasaur or croc. Any help will appreciated, if I missed an angle or need additional pictures do let me know.

I will give you a little back ground on where I found this fossil. There is a creek that runs through some of my families land in the middle of Walton County Florida. It is not located in a place that most people look for fossils. There are only about three locations on the creek that the beds are visible and most of them are at least five feet underwater and not easily accessible. I found this on the bottom of the creek at one of these locations when I was a kid. For the longest time I thought it was some old native American artifact. I recently found out it is some type of marine jaw bone. I looked up some of the geological formations where I live, and from what I can tell the beds are part of the Alum Bluff Group which is from the Miocene period.

This is a beach find from Ponte Vedra, I’m pretty sure it’s a jawbone but all teeth are missing. Both marine and terrestrial fossils are found here. What kind of animal does it belong to?
