ADURAN Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Went out again this past weekend to try to find more pieces to the large fossil I found in San Pedro and found what I believe (taking the wildest of guesses) may be a piece of a Whale Vertebra? Not sure this is considered a fossil but thought I'd ask all the more educated (than me) individuals on this forum. Since y'all are the experts! Thanks again in advance for any input. (If these photos are too dark I can post better ones later.) -Amy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JarrodB Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I think whale vert also. Some experts should chime in soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darktooth Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 It looks like whale vert to me but I'm not so sure it is fossilized. It looks modern to me. 1 I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darktooth Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Even though its modern , I still think that is a cool find. I would keep it! I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boesse Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Juvenile whale caudal vertebra, almost certainly modern. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
