    If you get some pictures of the ends, it might help.

    Here are some fossils from my fossil hunting trip in Holland. They are all from Hoek van Holland...Fossil Mammal Archive - Page 2 P6061510
    The bottom right two (the black ones) are from much older sediment. They are miocene in age and are from seals and/or dolphins.

    The bone at the top in your unknown post is part of a horse femur.

    couple more 4 legged mammal bones, still looking for an ID on these

    I have excavated two very similer pieces i believe the larger femur is cervidae the other bovine but a pic of the joint would help.

    Mammoth teeth, bothriodon teeth, deer teeth, elk teeth, bits of mammoth rib and marine mammal ribs. To be honest, I like all of my mammal fossils!
