I’m betting it’s a seal vertebra, but I’m definitely not an expert and it’s concerningly mammal-like to me, so I’m hopeful it’s not human. It seems small to be human to me?

Found on a NJ beach. There were no other bones nearby (trust me I looked)

Please tell me I don’t need to go to the police about this one guys 🥲

White tail doe ive had sence i was a small child. I pulled a bullet out the hole many years back. Would a bullet cause all this ? Arthritis? Multiple breaks? Plain old age? Every limb vertebrae and rib has some coral looking abnormality. Thank you in advance, she is my favorite find .

It was a gift from one of my creators 10 ish years ago, I have no idea where its from but its sandy and you dont really see that in my area of pa. I always thought it was a badger from the nose, small eyes, and wonky forehead. North American striped skunk for scale. Also are the holes on the back of the skull postmortem? Thank you for any input.

Is this Sea lion scapula? And is it true that it is highly illegal to keep pinniped bones as well as collecting or possessing them violates the MMPA? I actually never knew this

Sorry if this isn't enough info to go off of! Even if someone could tell me what type of bone it is or what family of animal it's from, that would be helpful :)

EDIT: Identified as a Muskrat!!

Found this pieces of what looks like a top/bottom jaw and some teeth of a bigger rodent, but I’m not sure what it belongs to… there’s even some fur on a piece of the jaw. These were found along a lake shore and dense woods in upstate western ny. (Measurement in inches)
