BONE ID

Found this in the lower Brazos River, Tx.   Any guesses?   Thanks in advance

The very last pic resembles an occipital from a mosasaur.  The first two still have me doubting that ID though.

No mosasaurs on the brazos. Are all those pics of the same bone? I'm leaning toward part of a vert.

Gary..yes all pics are of the same bone.   Really no mosasaurs on the Brazos? I did not know that.

Mosasaur fossils could had eroded from up north. But yes, mosasaur fossils are rare on the Brazos River. Mammals from the Pleistocene are way more common!!!
