Weez Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I'm fairly sure this is wood...but the ends look a little strange to me. I found this while I was hunting in the Bighorn Basin (Wyoming). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Looks like a piece of jasper. There is no structure to indicate wood, but it may be a cast. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 In picture 4&5 looks like a tree fern in transverse section, something like Tietea, or Psaronius. https://www.google.com/search?q=tietea&biw=1360&bih=612&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjByrz7grzJAhUBcg8KHdj3AkUQsAQIJA&dpr=1#https://www.google.com/search?q=psaronius&biw=1360&bih=612&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&sqi=2&ved=0ahUKEwjzoOClhbzJAhWGlQ4KHemnDZgQ_AUIBygC&dpr=1http://petrifiedwoodmuseum.org/AnatomyTieteaPsaronius.html " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.

Like Tony said, it might be a limb cast of some sort, though. Searching for green in the dark grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
