Kansas Bones

Recommended Posts

Good afternoon all,

I have been collecting quite a few bones out of the Kansas river and was wondering if you guys could provide some documentation to help me sort out what I got. Hoping to determine what is older and what is modern? What is bison and what is cow? I appreciate any help

We will need better pictures with the items numbered.

I have a good amount of experience with the Kansas River.  I should be able to help you with most of your specimens, if you follow @Fin Lover's advice.  :)

This is an excellent reference paper for Bison vs Bos (cow) bones:
