Paw print in coral?

Recommended Posts

On the North Shore of Lake Erie, I found this piece of what looks like old coral with an indentation that looks like an old paw print with 5 or 6 claws. The piece is about 6” by 4”. Any idea what this could be? Thank you!

Yes, it looks like a favositid tabulate coral, quite nice. :)

But the 'footprint' is just suggestive shapes created by the uneven erosion of the calcite and limestone.
