Possible bones? Whale?

These are from Florida. But I don't have a clue what they could be. They look like regular bones, or even rocks to me.

The first, and again the last are rib fragments from marine mammals. The first appears to be only partially pachyostotic indicating a cetacean. The last I believe is from a dougong/manatee rib.

Sometimes. I have a box full of meteorites and tektites and none of them are magnetic.

 

however, I agree that those two are are likely candidates.

 

we will need views of sides and edges on most of these to be more definitive.

I think that those two are one candidate.

Pictures 3 and 6 are the same specimen. I used a refrigerator magnet to test them, but no sign of metal.
