Good day at the fossiling

[Perico]

Not sure about the last tooth. Rhino? Beat up. Are the last two a coproplite? Also in the pics are small mastodon and mammoth teeth fragments as well as ivory. I also like the Gator chewed turtle shell!

Cool Finds! Those last two pics look like petrified dog sh*t

 

[mamabear]

you had a slammin day! You must be in Florida. Lucky you!

 

[Harry Pristis]

I think the last tooth is not likely to be rhino. It appears to be a well-worn domestic pig tooth (m1).

Thank you Harry! I was hoping you would help me out on this one! Yes I am in Florida.

Nice finds.
The last one is probably a Peckary tooth.
I really like that juvenile meg.
Its perfect necklace size.

Nice finds. That last one certainly has the shape of an alligator coprolite, but it is tough to be sure. Usually the coprolites are smoother, and yours looks grainy and rough.

I found alot of that compacted sandstone material in odd shapes.
I always found alot of that in sites I water hunted for artifacts.
It seemed to gather around wood and other biological material.

Thanks for the replies. I found about 20 Meg's that were all broke. I was in a good spot but got pushed out by the rain. Wish I had more time there yesterday.

At the Peace?
I did notice the water level was good.

 

[Perico]

Yeah was checking it out to take the kids. It is still a little high for them. My spots 2 years ago are unrecognizable. That river is constantly changing. Lots of sand too deep to dig through covering some of my old spots. Opens up new ones though. Found some good ones.

Love that place.

Hey Perico. I was literally drooling over some of your finds. Great job! I see you have some glyptodont/giant armadillo scutes there. Maybe we can work out a trade? P.M. me if you're interested.
