The humerus of the Hadrosauridae?

Do you have a locality where this bone was found, formation?

Not seeing a hadrosaur humerus in this specimen.  Attached see images of Edmontosaurus humeri you can compare against.  Shape is different as well as missing the articular head.

Well hard to say because you cannot say if its even from Cretaceous deposits.  Could be the distal end of a scapula

Without any geologic information its impossible to say what it even might be.  Even if we knew the location and formation it would be a pure guess as to which bone this is a part of.

 

Right now you have a very large "chunk-o-saurus" becuase its just a chunk of unknown bone.
