Found in north central Nebraska. Miocene. Probably  not enough there to get an exact ID  but I thought I’d give it a shot.

the curved surface on the bottom right in the last photo tells me this is part of the ulna of, as you said, a very large mammal.

Nebraska had so many huge mammals roaming around It makes it tough to get an exact ID.(Mammoths, mastodons, gomphotheres, rhinos, titanotheres)
