    Hi, @jenn-dominiski – It is hard to tell what this fossil is – can you tell me what you think it is or post a few more images? Talk to you soon, Jen

      For sure. I am working on all of my pictures now. I am pretty sure it is a tooth of some kind.

    Hi, @jenn-dominiski, this does not appear to be a skull or even bone material. It looks more like a rock to me. Where are the features you are using to identify it as bone? Thanks, Jen

    Hi, @jenn-dominiski, what sorts of fossils are you seeing in this rock? Is it chert? It’s a little hard to tell from the photos. Talk to you soon, Jen

      I am finding all sorts of animal remains- fossilized. From turtles to jaw bones. Local Geologist friend says that this looks like a mineralized jawbone.

        Oh okay, let me tag in some people more familiar with those types of fossils – @jeanette-pirlo – have you ever seen anything like this?
