Hello! A few years back a friend of mine found this thingy around the Caribbean island. We had a long debate about the origin of it and while i think it's just a part of an exotic tree left in saltwater. They think it might be bones. Please help us identify and include the way you are sure about what it is.
🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Wood or bone?

if it has any amount of weight to it
...it might be eroded coral but if its light for its size then perhaps it's a type of wood
Does it sink or float in water?

If it was bone, then what bone is it? Upper leg into the hip, maybe?
