Found this last Friday on the North Sulphur River.  Was thinking possible turtle fossil of some type but haven't really been able to confirm this.

Nice turtle bits, from the end view they will be triangular.

These are part of the shell that goes around the perimeter of the animal and the holes seen in your second photo are where the ribs attach.

  I think you nailed it.  It is triangular on the end.  Thanks!
