These were found river and creek side in Charleston, SC. I believe the first three are teeth and the last two are bones. I’m suspecting mammal on most if not all, I’ll put my guesses with them. 1. Not sure what these are from but appears to be a jawbone with teeth if I had to guess. 4cm x 2cm 2. The closest thing I can place this to is a tapir, but I’m not sure which end attached to the root and which was the chewing surface. I think the blurrier photo (#2) may show the chewing surface at top left. May not be a tooth at all but it really looks like it to me. 4cm x 2cm continued in next post due to image sizing

Nice day for another hunt. Fish bones and a small crocodile tooth.

Stopped at Flag Pond today since the weather is nice.

I am curious what this could be, I located it in San Juan County, NM, USA. I don’t have a scale in the photos, the item is larger than a golf ball but not much. It has visible bones & skin present. thanks for any help you might be able to give.

These are throwing me for a loop. Especially the repetitive markings in the smaller one. Lower river Brazos, Texas. Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, I am new to fossil hunting and recently took a trip to my local spot at Aust cliff in Bristol. I found some small chunks of bone bed about the size of a golf ball along the foreshore which I can see have small bits of bone including teeth. Does anyone have a good technique to extracting these without damaging the interesting bits. Cheers

Hello everyone, I found this bone while on a hunt in the cretaceous creeks of new jersey, very odd bone and definitely feels fossilized. My best guess is turtle but I am very unsure, I appreciate any feedback on this piece if it is Id'able thank you.

A lot of my collection is bought, as in 'oooh, pretty' many years ago with the result of having no clue as to species or where they were found. But I figured I'd show you all what I got anyway. This one I found and am hoping will look decent after prepping.

Hi there, just dropping an intro to show face. I guess this is where I talk about myself? Not very good about these things. I'd say my interest in paleontology started on a family trip in Colorado when I found the jaw bone of an elk in a stream my cousin and I were cutting through on the way home. With the teeth intact even! The feeling I got turning over those rocks to uncover it set off a love of discovery and my hobby. I look forward to delving into all kinds of strata of conversation and discussion here with you all. Thanks for having me!

Hi. Found these bones yesterday at gravel pits facility where workers separate big rocks from the fine sand from Great Morava river. They don't burn at all or smell like a burnt bone. Here are some photos if someone can help me identify them : I know for one that is radius bone from Bison/Bos, but don't know about the others. P.s. Also u can see that one bone has something similar like "scars" from a possible flint? Please help! Darko

Ichthyosaur Tail Fossil
Mousehead posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello! This one looks suspect to me. The smoothness of the bones and the lack of closeup photos to see any air bubbles/casting artifacts makes it hard to discern here. I'm also going to call out the little crevice surrounding the fossil that separates it from the matrix, which to me suggests it was planted into the surrounding rock. Info: Ichthyosaur communis Llavernock beach, South Whales, UK

I found a deer skull in an area of Central Texas where Native Americans lived for over 12,000 years. The skull was found half way up a tree. Near by were other weathered bones, mainly of deer. Additonally I found an unusal orbital socket, I guess that is the term. The eye socket is the same height as that of the deer, but much more elongated and it looks like the nose would have been very near the eyes, like a cat. I am posting a picture of the bones in hopes that someone has knowledge about both living and extinct Texas wildlife. I can post different angles, if needed. Thanks for looking and any help you can provide!

Trying to figure out what these might be. They would have been under water, the location still has a lake overtop of it, but the water levels were low when we found it. Soil has a lot of clay and there are tons of petrified or fossilized bones that litter the beach. Seemed larger than cow rib...any ideas?

Here are some of my Bull Canyon Formation fossils from New Mexico.

I found these in a quarry in Madison Wi. There were quite a few of these with different shapes and configurations of what look like bones to me. These were from a smallish pile at the bottom of the deepest part of the quarry and I would guess that are from lower down in the earth. I apologize if I am not using the proper language as I am very new to this. i have seen some sea bed rock from a different quarry, that has loads of shells, mollusks, and snails in them. This rock looks very different from the sea bed pieces I have. Are these bones? Is it chert? I was with two other people or I would have pulled every piece I could find off the piles to see if anything could be puzzled together, as these and the others were all in one area of the pile. If the pictures could be more helpful in different light etc, I will happily retake some. Thanks for any insight into them.

Hi everyone, Can you help me identify what animal this may be? It was found in Botswana. It is a semi-arid climate. Any idea if it's carnivorous or not? Any clues are helpful! Thanks.

Hi all! I'm just curious is anyone has an idea what animal this is. It was found in my backyard which is wooded with oaks and pines. Location is South New Jersey. It's a pretty heavily wooded area. I'm thinking maybe a fox? I also found near the bones a black feather which may have come from a crow or vulture. Thanks everyone!

Found the bones in northern kansas in a wash out. They were 8 - 10’ below the surface.

Found these in a small creek in North Florida. Have no idea what they could be. They could potentially fit together (they were found together)?? Unsure. That's my fossil hunting partners guess, but we're both pretty clueless. Manatee jaw? Help!

Found these in east central Arizona, close to where I have found fossil footprints. The brown rock surrounding the white material looks like fine sand adhering to it. The white material is smooth.
