Hey y'all
My family takes a yearly trip to Venice beach in Florida for shark teeth but I found this bone ! I know it's probably impossible to assume what it's from but any ideas would be appreciated thanks !

Idk for certain, but I have found a few that are similar if not the same that I have been told are whale or dugong, usually rib bones or vertebral chunks, sometimes other parts. Very nice find, I always appreciate days where I can hold million year old bones of giants.

Same here. I have a couple just like it. I was told dugong too. A dugong today would be called a manatee. Nice find !!!

Thanks guys I appreciate the suggestion !

Not flat like a rib bone however

Dugong ribs are very solid & heavy.
