It moved me a little further. Seal would be extremely rare in my hunting area. Most likely a river dolphin: http://www.sci-news.com/paleontology/science-isthminia-panamensis-river-dolphin-panama-03195.html On the 3rd, Turtle flipper bone is difficult to find a match. Humerus, Radius, Ulna ??? On the middle one, My first impression was walrus tusk, but it is so small, even as a tip. Thinking of a more common mammal, It thought it might be the broken tip of a mammoth tooth root. The broken enamel resembles mammoth, but never have I seen the crenelations like those on the outside of the enamel. Lastly , I have been considering sirenians... possibly Metaxytherium floridanum. Some additional photos. Cementum on one side, enamel, and then what is that inner core material.... 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...

The bone circled in blue is Carpal #5 (I think) 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...
