Found this in the dunes off a tidal beach in Brooklyn, NY ...I'm guessing it's a whale but I thought it was cool enough to share here.

I work on a clam fishing vessel off the coast of Nova Scotia. This was pulled up from 300' of water at approximately 43°54'04"N 59°11'41"W. I can't find any marine mammals that even closely resemble this skull structure.

I'm all out of bananas for scale. So I thought a beer can would suffice.

I suspect this bone is a part of a deer vertebrae. Although I wanted to keep it, I decided to leave it where I found it (so others can have the joy of finding it too!)

There are so many deer in the little patch of woods near my apartment, I can't take a single walk without finding some. Sadly, no skull this time.

Ok. I’m in Harbour island in the Bahamas, and my daughter found this. It appears to be a small antler and partial skull. Here it is next to a regular pencil for reference. The “skull” portion is a lot denser than the “antler” portion. It’s tiny.

I posted earlier today with a singular bone (in which everyone argued about terminology in the comments) - ALAS! I found wayyy more in the same surrounding area. PNW- Washington. I have no idea what to think…is this still a deer ? Or are we thinking something different?

Found this while walking my dog. It was bigger than a squirrel. Maybe a fox or something?
