A Heart Breaker

I took this picture at a thrift store where fishermen working on the clam and scallop trawlers out of Cape May NJ occasionally bring fossils to sell. This is a rare fossil section of caribou antler found off shore. I hesitate buying the rare fossil and when I came to my senses it had been sold when I returned. Caribou fossils are exceptionally rare in this area, very few examples having been found.

The thrift store regularly had mastodon teeth and I've bought two and unwisely left other ice age bones....
