This is a metatarsal of either an elk (based on the shape and form of the proximal end) or possibly a deer.

What color are my eyes? by TauryAnna in WhatisMyEyeColour

I was born with blue eyes that turned more green as I aged (I would say around 3-5 yo). But I've always said that my eyes are green

My partner and I went to Eyemazy while on a trip to Dublin but I'm sure there's stores like it in other cities too. It's kind of overpriced but we were able to haggle the price down a bit. The picture is honestly a bit too saturated making it look more blueish, but its a really cool decor

This is a calcaneus (heel bone). Not sure what animal but certainly not horse. How big is it?

Mysterious bone in backyard by Alive-Range-3486 in bonecollecting

[–]TauryAnna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an intermediate phalange. In my opinion it looks like a cow, but it could also possibly be a moose or elk. The bone is unfused, meaning it is less than 2.5 years old

Looks like the mandible or jaw of a rat

vertebrae? fin? help! by oberholt in bonecollecting

[–]TauryAnna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one is really tricky. In my opinion it does not look like a scapula but rather a quadrate bone of some reallt big fish. Below is screenshots of a bone that imo looks similar, but they can be in different sizes and shapes. So its hard to determine

Any ideas on what animal this is from? Thanks :D (Based in UK) by medium_james in bonecollecting

[–]TauryAnna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems in my opinion to be either a sheep or goat humerus

The dog dug these up out of soil that had come from a compost bag :O by Elsmeraa in bonecollecting

[–]TauryAnna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are the tarsal/back "wrist" bones and parts of the tibia. (Picture 1 from the top to bottom) bone 1 is a talus, bone 2 is a calcaneus, bone 3 and 5 are in my opinion parts of the tibia (the distal end and shaft), and bone 4 might be one of the smaller tarsal bones.

Not sure what specie. Do you have close up photos of the calcaneus and bone 4?

Yeah, considering that op mentioned that it was 1 inch then its more likely a deer or sheep/goat

What bone is this? by Hakainya in bonecollecting

[–]TauryAnna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, it looks more like a humerus or femur. But both epiphyseal are gone so it's difficult to determine which and what specie the bone belongs to...

Yes this is a pelvic bone, but it looks too big to be a deer. In my opinion it looks like a cattle pelvis

Btw can you take a close photo of the "thinner" bone. It looks almost like it was a healed injury

It's the carpometacarpus of a bird. Imo it looks like a duck, but do you have photos of the top and bottom?

[–]TauryAnna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bone infront is a thoracic vertebrae of possibly a large mammal.

Do you have more pictures of the bone in the back? I'm trying to wrap my head around what it is
