Hello, I am back! If you didn't know, I buy fossils on the internet sometimes. On EBay, I found a cheap vertabrae. It was only worth 5$ and they said it seemed fossilized, so why not buy it. I got it now, and it definitely is fossilized, just I have no clue what it belongs to. If anyone knows what it might be, tell me.

Bye! -Con

Any idea where it came from? Also, what is the scale of it?

A fossil hunter needs sharp eyes and a keen search image, a mental template that subconsciously evaluates everything he sees in his search for telltale clues. -Richard E. Leakey

I first thought mosasaur too....but the back of the vert seems to widen a bit to much...What about alligator..is that a possibility

Sorry I was gone for a bit. It does seem to be about 3-4 inches. I guess it is a mosasaur. I will put it next to my mosasaur jaw! :)
