Stone With Bitemarks?

Recommended Posts

I found the object on the shore amidst white sand and dead corals. It apparently was detached from its ground matrix and pushed ashore by strong tidal current, and there's nothing to link object to any sedementary formation as this might be somewhere in the deep.

Photo showing the stone in its' original color as found. Promenent prints of tooth marks shows on one end and on the other, an opening exposising the milky white color inside.

As it is, I suspect specimen is a former friut fossilized in Medussa-effect. I hope i'm not wrong.

I think you have a nice rock....nothing to indicate bite marks.

Sorry.

I have to agree with the x man, still an interesting rock though.

Yes Sir/s, In-deed, It's something very interesting and worth pursueing ......, The nearly uniformly flat chiseled marks seems from a tooth of plant or friut eating animals.
