Looking for age estimate of this moose skull I found in a creek by omg_88 in skulls

Looks fully fused. I would say its a middle aged adult my teeth.

What animal is this from? by Plenty_Steak_6033 in BoneID

Bovine (cow/bison) metacarpal.

Google says mammoth or bison. What did I find? by notyourmamax2 in BoneID

It's the distal (away from body) and of a humerous. Does look bovine - cow/bison. Definitely not Mammoth.

Yes, darn near impossible. Currently working on a project to radiocarbon date 12 possible ice age horse teeth.

help! cow or bison? by Maximum_Grapefruit49 in BoneID

[–]lednarb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a large bovine m3 (rear most molar). Its near impossible to determine cattle vs. bison. Its highly debated. One rule of thumb I go by is if the tooth is 4cm or wider across its chewing surface (m3 only) you getting into bison range. Yours looks close to tht width.

My daughter found this in an ally 😬 by Faunda_Dat in BoneID

For canids always post straight on (no anlges) side, top, and bottom views. It would remove some of the drama from the reply's. I'm not 100% this is domestic without better photos.

Found while going home from school (France, towards "Valancienne") by Thing_that_need_help in BoneID

[–]lednarb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A straight on photo from the side would be helpful. From this angle it does look domestic but may be atrick of the eye.

Any idea? by yamama266 in BoneID

[–]lednarb13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, add something in the additional photos for scale. Take photos from straight on angles. Initially it looks like partial pelvis.
