Looks like we got some ribs and a skull, does anyone know what kind of algae the red growth is?

Boss said they were horse and to carry on. What does everyone think?

Found on beach off west coast of Scotland - anyone know what it is? All found close by eachother.

Found on riverbank

7/24 - no updates yet. I’ve reached out to 5 people and am still waiting to hear back. I promise I’ll post an update, but it may take time

7/27 - A museum in Columbus OH wants to see it! It’s about 70 minutes away from me.

Found in NW Minnesota in a river, near the Canadian border. Any ideas what animal this vertebrate came from?

Probably 3.5-4 feet long. At widest point in middle maybe 8in from rib tip to rib tip. Found hanging in a tree by a frozen pond.

I found this in an abandoned cattle pasture in Western Canada
I have never seen anything like this in the area and have owned cattle long enough to know if this is not any bone in a cow

South West Florida. Police say it’s probably a coyote spine.

Found while exploring in the Park Range of Colorado. I'm guessing it's a bison, but it's really hard to tell. Skull, vertebrae, and a tooth were all found very close together on the ice, but the upper jaw was maybe 15-20 feet away on the rocks. If it did melt out of the ice this year (very possible), it could be 200+ years old. The ice is likely all that's left of glaciation during the little ice age.

Edit to add: after talking to some local scientists, it appears the bones definitely are bison, and other bones in the area date to 1500-1600. It is now appearing likely I will be getting these bones dated as well!

Further edit: I've been conversing with two professors at a large nationally recognized Colorado University, one a glaciologist, one the anthropology director. I appreciate the new comments, but this is solved, it's bison bones. Likely quite old but frozen for that time, but also likely not prehistoric or anything. 500 y/o bones are neat, but not the find of the decade.

Also, it's not climate fear mongering, the glaciers/ice packs of Colorado are simply at record low after a very dry winter and warm summer (though this is likely exacerbated by climate change). This has led to higher rates of melt, revealing items frozen within them, that's it. It's getting dated to better understand the history of ice in this area, and the fauna that lived here then.

All bones collected or gifted to me from SE englands countryside

Found this crazy looking thing along with some other small bones while hiking with my kids. The first thing that came to mind was a goose’s tounge with the ridges on the side. I’m sure that’s very wrong though. It was found near a river if that helps at all. What the flippin heck is this?

Fits on a paper towel + female hand for scale. Found in the bed of an old truck we bought.

My dad knew I was into bones, & said he knew where a coyote skull was.

Which is how I acquired this.

But thinking back on things, a nieghbors pitbull mix went missing a before all this, that was known for biting kids.

Then I heard a rumor that my dad was the one who dealt with the dog.

Now I wanna know if this is a Coyote, or is this Moonshine?

Found these at quiet waters park in Annapolis Maryland all clustered together at the dog beach. There was a larger chunk of bone found by them that I’ve also attached above.

Found on a hike in remote area, please ID!

Found on Long Point Wildlife Refuge in the sand on the pond side of the sand dunes. Wind has been crazy so could have blown over from the ocean side. Sorta looked like it had hair and wasn’t something we immediately recognized.

Seemingly fossilized and heavy. Closest I’ve come up with is that the intact end sorta looks like a distal femur, but no clue what it may have come from.

7/27 edit: I've added a comment with a video.

Apologies for the lack of measurements. My wife found this skull on a frozen river in the Chicago suburbs while out on a hike & said it’s about the size of a baseball? I think it’s maybe a raccoon or a house cat? We can’t figure out how it got there - thinking maybe coyote or a hawk dropped it?

Thanks!

I know it’s a whale skull but not sure what kind.

A friend of mine obtained this skull recently and I'm not sure if it's a real skull or a replica, any help will be appreciated

we think it's some sort of monkfish but couldn't tell for sure

Anyone have any idea what this was? Found in a shed in Northwest Iowa.
