Bones fossils in Carboniferous/pensilvanian, Rhode Island, USA

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I found what looks like bones fossils in a beach that has plant fossils from the Pensilvanian, mostly ferns. I see one smaller bone and a larger partial bone with the ball joint. They are both in the same block. Bone looking mineralization or fossil? If those are fossil bones I would assume some large land or amphibious animal to coexist with ferns. Hope someone can shed some light.

Thank you,

Marcos

Sorry, but these do not look like bones to me.  :unsure:

Can you take the 1st picture again, from directly above the item?

Preferably in daylight.
