jikohr Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Hi everyone! I'm fairly certain there's no funny business on this one, but I don't know what type of critter it could be since I'm fairly certain 99.9% of Moroccan claw pics online are of fakes and the remaining 1% are misidentified. 37.5 mm long 12 mm tall 8 mm wide What do you all think? Dinosaur? Croc? Turtle? Pterosaur? Any feedback is greatly appreciated as always! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanosaurus Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 This seems to me to be a small crocodylian claw, or possibly large turtle. Doesn't seem particularly dinosaurian. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixpaleosky Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Which criteria do you look at to differenciate dino/croc/turtle ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I dont believe this is dinosaurian looks more reptlian. Lacks a strong blood groove and profile too compressed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad I checked. And a strong blood grove is what says dinosaurian? Good to know! Does anyone have any pics of actual Moroccan dinosaur claws that aren't fakes for future reference? I'm honestly not sure I've ever even seen a picture of one. Thanks for chiming in guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
