Ash Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Heyas, From the Pleistocene of Australia, this one. Is it a croc vert? I'll throw in a @tooth_claw as well, ha! Or is it a modern cow..? (Also a possibility, upon further research). Always a few melon scratchers.. Oh, and @Jesuslover340 as it is her find Cheers.

Max-fossils Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Whatever it is, it's an awesome find! Fotm entry? Max Derème "I feel an echo of the lightning each time I find a fossil.

LordTrilobite Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Definitely a cervical vert of a medium sized mammal. Could be bovid. If so it's not that big. I'd say somewhere from the back of the neck. Olof Moleman AKA Lord Trilobite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesuslover340 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Hopefully we can get a few more opinionsbefore it gets chucked in the garden, but I do believe LordTrilobite may be correct in his assessment of it being bovid (most LIKELY cow). Still holding hope for crocodile, though "Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another."-Romans 14:19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordTrilobite Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Well it's not croc. I'm not sure about an exact ID. But I have no doubt that it's a cervical mammal vert. Olof Moleman AKA Lord Trilobite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Cow it is! Off to the garden it goes.

Kimi64 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 It is too cool to consign to the garden. I would shellac is & keep it. But I am a collector by nature. "It," not "is." Darn it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
