Jbenton Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Found in the peace river. Is this a glypt scute? Almost looks sandstone but not sure if fossils end up being sandstone. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
val horn Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I dont think so. turtle would show clear medullary bone, croc needs the circular hollows and for armadillo and sloth i expect it to look like a fancy short bread cookie, smooth with an indented border.

Fossildude19 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Kind of looks like worn piece of asphalt, to me. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

val horn Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I keep plenty of things in my ? Box sometimes i recognize it later . Sometimes it goes in the rock garden after a while, if it was interesting enough to pick up i would keep it until i had no questions. I keep remembering some pieces of mammoth skull that i didnt recognize and left in the peace river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellseeker Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 When I first started, I tossed away Armadillo Osteoderms, thinking they were asphalt. It seems to have roughly the shape , and heavily eroded. Hard to say what it might have been, but you should look at some armadillo osteoderms.

On my trip to the Peace River I threw out a giant sloth tooth. That was months ago and I'm still kicking myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
