Pepper Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) This is one of 2 bones I found near the hide tide mark on a secluded South Island beach near Kaikoura, New Zealand. I'm thinking it may be Mosasaur? Edited January 19, 2020 by Pepper Another image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossil_sea_urchin Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 From the angle you have posted it doesn't look like bone and doesn't seem to have any diagnostic features. Maybe post more pictures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I think mosasaur vertebra is a distinct possibility. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
