Help identifying fossil bone
Submitted by Borrowdale on Mon, 07/13/2009 - 14:28.

Hi I found this fossil bone washed up on the North Kent Coast - see pics It weighs around 1.5 lbs and is definitely ossified. I imagine it is a mammal from the last ice age period? Thanks in advance.

I'll repost the image to a few vertabrate paleontologists to see if they can ID it for you.

Cheers,
