Small Florida claw for id

   I didn't find this would certainly like to. It was found in Venice Florida at a land site where most finds were marine. I can only imagine it's a ground sloth but have never seen one so small. Thank you in advance

I agree that it's a small sloth claw core.  I can't say whether it's a juvenile sloth or a lateral claw from a small sloth like Nothrotheriops.  Either way, nice find!
