Hey, I'm back in the forum!!! This summer I bought a fossil in Mexico, it looks like a rib. It was found in Cerralvo, Mexico. The geology of the area is Late Creataceous to Eocene. It is definitely a fossilized bone. My questions are what bone is it, and from what animal could it had been?

 

The location where it was found

I believe that the export of fossils from Mexico is prohibited. This bone is a chunksaurus I think, rib is a reasonable guess, but I, not sure anything beyond that can be deduced.
