White River formation South Dakota. My guess is femur, it's large. Very heavy. Weighs almost 10 lbs. I am having a hard time finding long Bone examples of some of the large mammals that lived in SD. Would love some help with an ID. Thanks so much ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1531795790.751634.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1531795811.015946.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1531795830.522239.jpg

Woolly mammoth. You will be sent to jail for digging up that fossil.

Where in my post did you read I dug anything up? I am aware of Fossil Collecting Laws. [emoji108]🏻

Very Nice Find! Good Luck with getting an ID. If someone on here doesn't come up with an ID, send some pictures to a university near where it was found.
