Interested in vertebrae.

But this is real snake or other animal?

They look like real vertebrae at least. But that photo is really small and it's hard to see any sort of detail.

No scale in pictures. What is the size of these pieces?

Thank you.

 

So I'll buy a couple - three, and then I'll study more closely. But the vertebrae from Morocco?

They look genuine. I wish these were more common in the Eocene of the southeast - our museum only has a single specimen from SC!
