pmoon Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Hi there! I went fossil hunting today at GMR and found all these awesome bones! I am most interested in what the top row, first 3 on left could be. They were found right next to each other. all the other bones were found in a close distance (within 10 feet) of the first 3. Thank you for any and all help! if anyone has any input on any other bones in the first pic, I would appreciate that as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kmiecik Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Item on the bottom left looks interesting. Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Hueso Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Pmoon, incredible find! Congrats. I wish I had some knowledge to offer in assisting the identification process, but I am just as puzzled as you are. I have to ask, how were this found in situ? Where they partially visible? What was the matrix like? Did you have to do any digging? Once again, great find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pieces in the lower left corner and center-right (w/ the hole) are intriguing. Could you take a few closeups at different angles of those two?
