Out Hunting again today to a place I have not been recently. April is Alligator mating season, so we tend to take extra precaution. The day started slow ,  digging in low grade gravel (6-10 small shark teeth per sieve) until noon. Found location with bigger small teeth.  Right about noon, found a Horse tooth and then about half hour apart a Dugong Vertebra and a Mammoth Carpal.... 

 

The carpal badly broken on one side but has enough detail to be identified.

I know @Brandy Cole has a link to 3d animated video on Mammoth bones but little time to figure it out tonight.

Also found some silicified Bryzoan, and coralites attached to (I think ) broken sand dollar.

Finds came come slow or fast but no controlling the pace.

 Hi Jack,   The first photo is a left lower p2 of Equus.  The second photo looks like a lumbar vertebra, probably from a land mammal.  The other photos ???
