Appears to be a proximal phalanx, maybe from a large cat.  More images would be useful.

Thank you for your help , I don't seem to be able to post not images as I've reached my limit which is a bit useless. Kind regards.

you should be able to post more pix in a reply as opposed to in your original post.  Also if you make the files a bit smaller you can post a ton of photos.

Hi, I made the image smaller. I hope this helps. Thank you.

[Harry Pristis]

It still looks like cat to me.

[cat320]

Great, thanks for your help.

I would definitely get that to a pro to determine what cat it is from. Very cool!!

Try the closest natural history museum to where you live. If they can't help you they will almost certainly know who can.
