Imagining a claw core


Shellseeker

Recommended Posts

Out hunting yesterday. A productive day.  Found a couple of whale verts, fish verts, a smallish horse tooth plus a fossil I have only found once previously.  I think it is a strange type of tilly bone from a fish that no longer exists.  Length at 30 mm.

But I will not go down the rat hole trying to identify tilly bones to a species of fish. Let me try a different rat hole. Trying to identify what might be a claw core... The fossil does not seems to be broken anywhere on the sides, curved slightly on one side.. It is 20 mm in Length.

I am looking for TFF members knowledgeable about claw claws.... Could this be one?

 

PrehistoricFlorida sold an early miocene canid claw,  and this is one of the photos.  Likely just under 20 mm.
