Found on a beach

Hi, sorry if this is off topic, but I've found these "bones" on a beach in Italy yesterday. Do you know what it may be? They don't feel like strange pieces of wood

It is bone but it does not look fossilised. I don't know what animal it could be from but probably something like a bird or someone had a barbecue. When bones get fossilised they get filled inside so they won't be hollow and usually they lose their white colour too and will be as heavy as a rock

I believe it may be a not-fossilised cetacean bone

Doesn't look to be from a crustacean, also crustaceans don't have bones, only exoskeletons

Cetaceans include whales, dolphins, and porpoises. You may have misread lucas' post. ;)
