Alexa Hancock Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I am trying to identify this animal part. It appears to be the outer cover of a hoof. Can someone confirm that and tell me what animal it is likely from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I took the liberty of cropping and brightening your pictures. This looks more like some sort of shell-like material, to me. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
