    I was sold this fossil by someone in Tennessee, when I asked what it was, they said it was a vertebrae of some sort. Any idea on what this could be? #fossil

    • Did the seller mention where they found it? Location helps narrow down the possibilities!

    • Hi, @jacob-schick – It looks sort of familiar, maybe a whale? Let me tag in @jeanette-pirlo who may have some more expert knowledge. Do you have another image with a scale bar so we can determine about how large it is from the image?

      • I was thinking whale also when i first saw it, but also perhaps proboscidean. A scale bar would be great as well. But certainly knowing the location of where it was found would be most helpful. this will help narrow down age and potential species.
