OREODONT FOSSILS (Oreodon or Merycoidodon Culbertsoni)

NO, this is NOT an Oreo-eating dinosaur!  

It is a short-legged, blunt-headed herbivore with 5 toes on each front foot, and 4 on each rear foot.   This mammal lived 30-35 million years ago in the Late Oligocene era.  From the White River Formation, Pennington County, South Dakota.

 "Sword-ray" FISH

The LARGEST bony fish that ever lived, it grew up to 18' long, distantly related to tarpon.  It had a voracious appetite, swallowed fish whole, some six feet or more in length.  There are fossils excavated showing a "fish within the fish" such as this fossil found in Kansas in 1982.  The fish it swallowed was 6 feet long!

WHALE FOSSILS 

Scaldicetus species

Pliocene to Miocene Era (1.8 to 25 million years old), found in North & South Carolina
WHALE BALEEN (not fossil)

Wide strips of baleen (which is made from keratin, the same material your fingernails or horses hooves are made of) with fringes of hair hang down from the inside of the Baleen Whale's mouth like strips in a car wash.  Plankton catch on the hairs which are then licked off by the whale's tongue and swallowed. (See Alaska page 5 under BALEEN for etchings on baleen available for sale, by Alaskan Native Eskimo):

Alaska Page 6
Here is an exquisite basket made of strips of whale baleen by Inuit in Alaska, topped with a whale tale of walrus ivory and a bottom disk of ivory.  These retail for a minimum of $400.  This one is a gift from Glenn to Heidi
