Racheld1 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I was hunting in a SW Florida creek and found some great fossils. These are the ones I couldn’t identify. The first one is really large- most intriguing to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racheld1 Posted April 22, 2019 Author Share Posted April 22, 2019 Dolphin or whale ear bone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellseeker Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I am pretty sure that Bison, and Bison lower jaw are 1st 2. Not enough to determine if the third is Bison or Horse. Definitely small whale or large dolphin. I would go with Dolphin based on size and local % of dolphin over whale. Hopefully others will chime in. 1 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshuajbelanger Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I would say the last couple pics are definitely a cetacean ear bone. The largest one is as @Shellseeker probably part of a jaw bone. The vert looks pretty snakish to me, but I'm no vert expert. All and all, not a bad haul for a day in the creek. Sifting or snorkeling? Both?
