Peat Burns Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I found these two metapodials while diving in South Florida. They are not fossil. But I'd like to identify them for placement in the reference collection. Hoping they are a native marine animal (manatee, cetacean, sea turtle). Any help would be greatly appreciated Scale is in cm (or about 3.75 inches long) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calhounensis Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 These are fairly common finds diving in south Florida. Pigs are used in crab traps and their bones often turn up while looking for fossils. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
