RJB Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 My guess is 'rib', but no idea as to what species? Not sure if that can even be id'ed? RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strepsodus Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Hi. I think that's a Gyrosteus mirabilis fish bone. Well done. Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeschWhat Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I'm not seeing bone structure. It may be wishful thinking, but I see coprolite. Lori www.areallycrappystory.com/fossils www.facebook.com/fossilpoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
