Greetings forum members!
 

 

I was looking through the last rocks from my latest fossil hunt and I found this interesting piece.

I glued it back together as best I could last night and was looking more closely when I found something interesting. 39739623-262F-4201-A1B7-035CCE6366FD.thumb.jpeg.9231ee424aa1d6b2b37de1032785c28d.jpeg
I’m not completely sure but I have a hunch that the one end of this fossil might have predation marks from a larger Pterygotid. Could this be true or did it just break weird when it was molted? I was wondering if anybody on the forum could help me out with this. 
 

Thanks for looking!

Owen
