goatinformationist Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Axis and vert of something mammalian and really small. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Maybe rabbit/hare for the jaw. Can we have an occlusal view (chewing surface) of the teeth?

abyssunder Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Thank you for the picture. If it was found in Peace River/Florida, my guess would be Sylvilagus sp., maybe S. floridanus (hence the name and distribution), known as the Florida Cottontail. link1 link2 link3 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.

goatinformationist Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Of course what I meant to type was, axis and jaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilSmiley Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Thanks all. Are these relatively young fossils, then? Or contemporary bones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
