First of all we need better pics from different angles. A single photo of a couple bones in a ziploc bag, does not an ID equate.

Definitely look human, except size is all wrong. Look too developed for infant, but photo prevents really assessing. Maybe a monkey?

Take them to a hospital E.R. and have a doctor look at it, or your local Health Department..(M.E.)..You need to know for obvious reasons..Storing in a plastic bag is not a good idea...

Depending on where you are at and the large one only being 5” long, I’d say large sea bird or a turkey leg

2" & 5" I would go with turkey (not a mammal). Seagull or pelican also a possibility.
