Bones this size come from only a few possibilities in my hunting areas (Florida). Some sort of large elephant ancestor or whale. In your part of the country, you might have to toss dinosaurs in as a candidate. I wonder if the details in the porous bone might differentiate between marine and land mammal. 1 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LA fossils Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share Posted November 25, 2020 not sure but I do know for a fact that marine fossils have evidence of boring clam holes, tubeworms, oyster scars, barnacles. etc. Thank you for looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 I think whale or other cetecean is a possibility. @Boesse Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Boesse Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Ah, I did not see that, though I saw in a separate thread someone speculating they were from the vicinity of Earp, CA. The closest marine mammal localities I know of are Cajon Pass and the Imperial Group west of the Salton Sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
