garyc Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I find lots of verts. Most are horse, cow, deer. Some more mineralized than others. I don't bother posting most of them. This one seems different, but I can't describe why I think it's different. Just a gut feeling. Any thoughts? Found on the Brazos River, Texas, pleistocene.

garyc Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 It was suggested on TFF Facebook that this is a Glyptodon caudal vert . I can't find any thing online to compare it to. Not even in Harry's gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's awesome! Was looking for comparisons to my new suspected glyptodont caudal vert and your post is helpful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
