suz Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Hello! Can anyone help me identify this bone I collected on a beach at the Savannah River in the area known for dredging? It appears to be an animal femur. I’m new to fossils - can’t tell if this could be a really cool find or just the bone of a large processed animal as another suggested. I appreciated the help.

Fossildude19 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Welcome to the Forum. To me, it looks like a large modern bone of processed animal. Saw marks on the broken edge point to this. Tannins in the rivers can color bones fairly quickly. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
