karenilm Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hello! I was hoping someone could help me identify these three items. Any idea what this vertebra is from? 1) 2) I'm pretty sure this is a vertabra as well: 3) Tooth? Thank you very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellseeker Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 The first (and easiest) is a marine mammal - most likely dolphin. The 2nd is a vertebrae and the 3rd is a chunk of bone. No teeth here. I have never been successful on identifying well worn chunks of bone. It is actually pretty hard to identify random fossil bones that are not worn or broken. There is always the chance that a TFF member will come along and prove me incorrect with obvious expertise. 1 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vieira Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I agree. The first one looks like a modern dolphin vertebra. I don't see any tooth here, only some bone fragments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
