MedicineHat Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 My first day out. Not sure what it all is but looks like tyrannosaur teeth, claws? Horn? Big toe bone and micro toe bone? Croc tooth, small vertibra? I would appreciate if anyone can help out on the ID. Next time I'm going to take a digital tour and post in situ.

Bone guy Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Pictures 4, 5, 6 look like a very worn theropod claw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darktooth Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Sorry I can't help with id's but looks like you did well. I love the teeth! I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runner64 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Where were these find? Might help in an ID. Agreed, the 4,5,6 photos look like a worn claw. Your last post appears to be a Tyrannosaur tooth. Also looks like you have a hadrosaur jaw section (also seen in second photo) in your finds in the first photo and the 3rd photo is a ornithopod claw and digit bone. Several verts as well. Looks like you did well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Post individual pictures of what you want ID with scale, Looks like you have a few Tyrannosaurid teeth. Nice haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Could be a theropod claw but need to see more images of the otherside, top and bottom, size. Originally thought it was a Hadrosaurid dental battery. Need pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Tyrannosaurid tooth either Daspletosaurus or Gorgosaurus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedicineHat Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 Two identical teeth. Only difference is the curve on the front carina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very stout. Is it a predentary or what tooth placement would you guess? Do you think this means it is a juvenile specimen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedicineHat Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 Cerotopsian Horn or some kind of armour spike? Maybe nothing but bone.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedicineHat Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 The rapid claw. Found 2 pieces and glued them...searched desperately for the rest but may have to search under the crust. I was disappointed to say the least. I luckily found two teeth within a square foot of this claw. One was actually under the crust and a total fluke. Makes me wonder what else lay just beneath the surface. The big tooth is maybe 3" or more but what the picture hides is the fact that it is split lengthwise. I have a perfect frontal half for display. It was teetering on the edge of total annihilation. One more rain storm and it would have been toast! Us amateurs save these beauties from being lost forever. But I feel like it was probably waiting last year in its full glory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
