PrehistoricFlorida Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 These were found in the Late Pliocene of the Santa Fe River. This is from the pronghorn antelope. The antelope is one of those animals like the giraffe, lion, or rhino, that when you tell people they used to be running around Florida eons ago, they kind of look at you like you're crazy - I love it!! www.PrehistoricFlorida.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barefootgirl Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Those are some beauties to be sure, great find.
