Found these yesterday on one of our sand bar and gravel bar hunts here in Northwest Missouri. Let me know if i need more photos, my batteries died on the camera and should be ready in a couple hours.

The below photo is one that is not pictured in the group shot. This one is 9 1/2 inches long.

Creek-hunting! . . . What a great way to spend the day!

The skull is from a raccoon, Procyon lotor.
The 9.5" bone appears to be a femur, probably from a deer.
 
Thanks Harry, any idea what the others might be, or do you need individual photos? I had another good day today on a different part of the river. Photos to come, i believe i have some more Bison bones to show.
