find nice fossils looking for arrowheads

Interesting group of fossils, Steve. I especially like the bear canine.

The two parietals(?) from the alligator gars . . . are they fossil or modern? We don't get those here in Florida.

Some excellent finds. What direction in Texas-south?

Also in the first shot, what is the shiny red ovalish- shaped fossil?
And what is that in the second pic? I see Harry Id'd alligator gars...

Steve can confirm, but I believe that object is half of an unworn, tapir upper molar.

There appears to be a well-worn, tapir lower premolar just below the oppossum jaw in a subsequent image.
