Pacific Northwest, southern Washington. Found during a walk in the woods
Cross section cut of a cow leg bone from a roast.
This is what we’re leaning towards. Either cow or pig after looking at some pictures. Just such a weird thing to find in the woods!
They sell them cut like that as dog treats, with the hole packed with food. Probably either dragged out as a treat for some camper’s dog or scavenged by wildlife and abandoned when the good stuff was gone.
These are probably dog treats
Source: used to give them to my big pup when I was a kid :)
I’d put it back.
Bone’s haunted?
I don’t know, it just sends shivers down my spine.
Definitely looks like a
vertebra.Nah it’s a cow leg bone cut like @ChonkyOwlbear said. Vertebra don’t have marrow cavities like that.
