PODIGGER Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Dug this out of the Peace River yesterday and almost tossed it back when I thought maybe its a claw or hoof core. Haven't found either in my prior hunts and may well be just falling for a suggestive shape. Looking on line failed to convince me either way so I am asking for help with the ID. This gave my photographer wife a chance to use her new photo light box. I think they came out pretty good. The ruler was a bit difficult to position. The specimen is apporx 3"L x 1.25"W x 1.75"H. Any input would be appreciated, Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminal Stareasaurus Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Could that be a leg spur of a giant land tortoise? I dig the Peace River also as I live in Wauchula. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PODIGGER Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 Thanks for the response Donna. I have several leg spurs and this is bigger than any I have seen. The shape of the leg spurs seems quite different to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
