Asking for ID - Brazos River fossils


Sjohn

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

We are absolutely new to the world of fossils hence any help with identifying this will be greatly appreciated. My son and I went looking for fossils on the Brazos river bed near Sugar Land, TX. We found the attached fossil. It looks like a claw or a tooth. Please let me know if you need any additional information. Sorry I did not take pictures next to a rule. The item is around 2 inches long. 

 

Thanks and looking forward to your replies

Thanks again Rockwood. 

You should wait for other opinions just in case. I've never been to Texas. :)

At a glance could totally be a tooth maybe croc but texture of spec shows it's a stone but a lot of middle between the two

I’m pretty sure that is a curved rock. But you can find fossils along the Brazos so keep looking and have some fun!!
