garyc Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Does anyone have a clue what this distal humerus came from? I found it in Pleistocene gravel in southeast Texas. From the limited images, I have found online I do not think it is bison. I’m leaning toward horse, but wondering if it could be tapir. I would appreciate any insights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balance Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 The single articulated “groove” or Channeling (hopefully I can’t get an anatomical term hint from the forum) is important. At least I think it might be. To have multiple toes, multiple grooves? Example being a bison bifurcating into two toes has a groove for each metacarpal /tarsal. So the owner of your bone can only have one toe , right? Sorry it’s not an answer but might narrow it down. At worst I’m totally wrong and will learn something. 😊😉 Jp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
