FOSSIL UPLOAD
First, make sure you have a myFOSSIL account, this is required to upload your fossil information. If you are interested in seeing if your fossil can be used for research purposes, please follow through the following steps. They walk you through the information needed and why it is helpful for other scientists to use it for research questions. Even if the information you have on your fossil is not enough to be used for research purposes it will still benefit the community through educational means and help others identify their fossils. Specimens that have sufficient information will be uploaded to iDigBio and GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) for public accessibility.
If you have already gone through the stepwise process that explains each piece of data please click through to a summary tab where you can enter in your specimen data on a single page.

definetly fossil… do you know where that area dates back too (ie the mesozoic era)
i dont know correctly but in the Mesozoic era it was underwater, and in the Cenozoic it was the Coverd in Ice
Well it could possibly be plesiosaur or pliosaur bone…
but probably not anything from the cenozoic… things would fossilize easier underwater than in ice
Ok ill
take furder research on this specimen
rather interesting!
It’s most likely ice agr
Age
So Pleistocene
It looks like the bottom of a jaw!
It isn’t Mesozoic
Definitely ice age
Can you upload some more angles, please
ok
oh wow
@smudge-smith the ice age only happened in the last couple million years of the cenozoic, so something can perfectly be cenozoic without having preserved in ice
but @leonardo-miranda @dyon-hunting said in the cenozoic it was covered in ice
the cenozoic lasted from 65 mya to the present. of those 65 million years, the ice age only happened in the last two million and ended some 10 thousand years ago
@smudge-smith watch Walking With Beasts. you’ll see there were a whole bunch of stuff between the dinosaur extinction and the beginning of the ice age
tiny horses, land whales, ground sloths, terror birds
I guess so… maybe mammal? 😂
I love terror birds
There’s a possibility that the ice age isn’t over yet. this is just a short moment of warmth halfway through before the ice returns @smudge-smith ; the “eye of the hurricane”
mammal? maybe. or dinosaur. or plesiosaur. or a pink fluffy unicorn. l don’t know anything about telling apart bones
sadly
you are doing your best
same
you Guys are the best
thx
@leonardo-miranda The eye of the hurricane you say?
…There is quiet, for just a moment… yellow skies.
and then it whooshes back all over again
@leonardo-miranda It’s a Hamilton reference lol
heheheh
Trust me, that is a bottom jaw of a kind of mammal dating from the ice age as Holland was part of the late land bridge that reached the British isles and divided the young North Sea and English Channel. As well as before that Europe was one whole land mass!
If it’s got holes in the lower top it’s a bottom jaw as that’s where the teeth would have gone in!
If not it might be part of the arms or legs?
And Smith you have, in the cenozoic/age of mammals, paleocene, eocene, Oligocene, Miocene, Pliocene and Pleistocene!
The ice ages didn’t occur till the start of the Pleistocene!
Bare in mind, that the last ice ages is the most popular episode of a glacial cover up and that it has been occurring or potentially could have occurred for 2 billion years!!!
In the space of 2 billion years!
Ok let’s get down to business. We agree it’s probably a jaw bone, and it’s cenozoic, so no dinosaurs, unless we’re talking birds. Birds however, have beaks, so no terror birds. It looks long, (there’s no scale so I’m just assuming) and it is relatively straight, it just runs until it meets with the other jaw in a roughly triangular shape. Being…[Read more]
thank you al for your
help!!

hHahaha
iam really good at typing
lol
