3 months ago3 months agoI agree with the bullfish predentary bone from a modern fish. It is definitely NOT from a sea urchin. That must’ve been a good size fish!

3 months, 3 weeks ago3 months, 3 weeks agoI think you need to post a picture with a little more detail, especially of the head region in order to attempt an ID. Did the specimen come with a note telling where it was from by any chance?
