Need Vertebra ID'd...

Greetings,

 

This is a vertebra found in the same vicinity as my last post, Kansas River, South Side, just North of Desoto, Kansas. It is very "sticky" when wet finger is applied. No odor when flame tested.

 

About 2 months ago, I found this in the Kansas River, under a submerged stump at the end of the sandbank. It was found in conjunction with another vertebra that I posted separately.

 

The location was on the South side of the River just north of DeSoto, Kansas. As it started to dry out in the dry indoors of winter (despite the humidifier on my heating system), it began to flake apart...the surface patina that is.

 

Measures: 4 1/4" x 3 1/4" =10.8cm x 8.2cm

I cannot guess age. Any ideas?

 

Thank you all kindly in advance.
