I doubt the forensics check the DNA of a single bone here, even if human... Maybe if found close to a crime scene... i don't really know how forensic investigation works here.

No need do to DNA analysis, it can be identified as human by sight by a proper trained person. Does not matter how forensics works in Portugal, with calling the police (if something could be human) you have already done your part.

What?  I too am a member of NamUs!  Normally the human bones that I find are very, very old.  Then photographed, weighed, and marked in situ for mapping purposes.

My "bedtime stories" are UID and MP cases... And the hope of giving a UID a name!

I think the bones that wash up on that particular beach, are animal bones. I'll take photos next time i find one, just in case...

I go to that beach twice a week during the Sparus Aurata (Dourada) season... I find random bones almost every time i go there. I know it is my duty to call the authorities if i find human remains. When i said i don't know how forensic works, i meant i really doubt they send someone on site to check a bone. Unless i tell them i found a human skull, an arm, hand, etc... But i will call them next time tho... just to check what they say.

1) Nowhere should be human bones lying open on a beach, in a river or elswhere!

2) Please take photos of the supicious bones (no touching needed) and post them here in TFF

3) The may be recognized as human or non-human by the members of TFF.

4) If human, call the police and inform them of your find. I think, thats all that you need to do then.

As promised...

They all look modern except the last 3 pictured (can not tell on them), but none look human.

I just got back from there. On my way home, i took a different road and i found out there's a deactivated slaughterhouse nearby... I guess it explains the bones and teeth.

That'd do it. I was going to ask if there was a slaughter house, but you answered the question.

Now that i brought two recent teeth home, i'll have to start a new collection! Or throw them in the trash...

Thanks for your time and help.
