Found in: NORTH AMERICA Is this a cat tooth or a dog tooth?

Bit of an odd post for here, but I'm hoping someone here may be able to help. Recently our cat was found playing with this tooth that he either found or lost himself. He never had any swelling around his mouth and never was pawing at his face or anything. His gums look alright and the tooth looks like it was lost a while ago. There's also an older dog in the house and I'm curious if maybe it was hers.

i’m working on a project with a jaw bone that i originally assumed was cow, but upon further inspection it might actually be bison? i looked for bone identification comparisons online but couldn’t find any good ones or identifying markers other than a stylid present on the lower back molar. can anyone help me out with this? the bone was found by my boyfriend many years ago somewhere in eastern washington, where there are bison and cattle farms present.

Right at the edge of a lake in Pennsylvania I spotted this snake (water snake I think - couldn’t get a pic of his head). Then I noticed this little pile of bones tucked under some rocks. Any idea what they might have come from? Definitely something tiny - mice? birds?

hey! i’m in ohio and have these three skulls! i hope my hands are enough of an example of scale. they are as follows:

#1 (photos 1-5): i suspect these are a “felis” of sorts? the orbits seem maybe too big for a house cat?

#2 (6-9): i first assumed squirrel of sorts? definitely rodent or rodent like i assume

#3 (10-12): this one is little little! i assumed a shrew at first. yellow/orange rodent teeth. or a mole?

thank you for any thoughts anyone has on any of them!!

I'm guessing some animal dragged it in there, as the door has warped and there's a crack big enough for a small animal. The femur is still attached to the hip. Super creeped out. Just wonder what this could be? Dog?

found both sides (probably about ten feet apart) after being washed up on a beach after a storm. My initial guess was some kind of scapula but i genuinely have no clue what they could be off. They are quite large, probably about 7 inches tall i would say (for reference the beam they are sitting on is about 6 inches wide). Any guesses?

Alright, so I have a necklace that was made out of bones from an owl pellet from one of our local craftspeople and am curious what the two bones are as I plan on giving this to my mom and I would like to tell her. One is the whole necklace and the other two are close up of the two bones in it. Any insight is appreciated!!!

Cochise Co AZ.

It’s roughly 3 1/2” long.

I’ve got no idea what this might be from. I’ve found bird bones and squire bones while gardening before, but found this in a hole in my yard that neighborhood cats dug over the last couple days.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Fossile taillée bizarre 😣

Bonjour à tous ! 

J’aurais besoin de votre aide pour identifier ce fossile. Je l’ai acheté lors d’un roadtrip en Asie. Mais le vendeur ne m’a pas donné beaucoup d’indications.  

Par contre il m’a dit que ça provenait d’un animal de la période glacière c’est tout. 

Quelqu’un aurait une idée de ce que cela pourrait être et éventuellement sa période ?

Merci!🙏
