    This was collected at Rattlesnake Creek in Florida (Neogene) during the myFOSSIL Imaging Conference. People were finding similar bones that were identified as either porpoise or dugong. I was thinking this might be a phalanx bone of one or the other, but I was wondering if anybody could confirm that. Thanks!Dimensions: 5.0cm x 2.1cm x 1.9cm

      Hi Nathan, can you take and upload pictures of the proximal and distal ends. Looks like it could be a chunk of dugong rib (don’t forget your scale bar!)

      Hi, @jeanette-pirlo ! If you look at this post on the website, you can see the different views. I uploaded the pics via the website, so maybe to show the other pics I need to upload with the app. Anyway, thanks for looking!
