Texas - Fossilized Bison Hoof?

[johnnyvaldez7.jv]

Lucky me the river level is dropping after a small increase but it was enough for me to hit the usual spot and find a few things today. Found this very solid specimen that after searching online I believe it might be a bison 3rd phalanx or a hoof core? I almost passed it by because I thought it was a rock...it's definitely fossilized. It's the first one of these I've found so I thought it was pretty cool. Probably an overkill on photos but I wanted to get the best photos I could of it. Found in SE Texas on a gravel bank.

There seems, to me, to be a epidemic of that lately.

I get a kick out of the links I find where I get to see a fossil in 3D...and you can move it around and see it from every perspective.  I guess I take a bunch of pics because it's how I like to see a fossil....from as many views possible.  It may not be for everyone but I hope others might enjoy seeing it the way I do.

I agree. 

Can't have too many quality photos in my opinion.
