Hi all,  Long time no post for me (mostly because I haven't been out collecting).  I did get out this past weekend though with my young son for a quick hunt and we found a fun mixed bag of things.  No big teeth (just the usual small ones) but we did find a few unique pieces that I thought I'd share.  They are as follows:

 

1.) Tuna hyplural (tail bone)

2.) Crab carapace

3.) 2 x mostly complete ray mouth plates  

4.) 1 x Cetacean bone with predation marks

 

I still love finding big teeth but always fun to get some variety mixed in too.  The teeth can wait for next time.  :-)  Happy hunting to all.

Really great that you found those. They are indeed unusual.
