Recommended Posts

Hi all! Found this on a beach where late miocene fossils are often exposed or washed up. Im thinking it's a whale vertebrae, but would like the input of the forum members. Whale or something else?

Thanks, I have had confirmation that it's baleen from a collector who knows the area well where the vert was found:dinothumb:
