Claw found on the ground in West Texas on a ranch, north of Big Bend National Park. I found this about 15 years ago on the ground while looking for arrowheads and have always wondered what type of claw this is. I'm certain it's a claw because it is really similar to a big-cat claw (mountain lion).

[Note: We can't tell if the claw is a fossil from the picture. Perhaps someone knows more about Texas fossils? Please leave a response.]
My Grandmother and I always picked up rocks while at the lake when I was little. This is a rock she had picked up at some point.
We never knew if it was just a rock or a fossil. If anyone knows what this is please let us know. As you can see there is some paint on the front of it since it had been used as a door prop. When my Grandmother passed away I really wanted the rock and everyone else thought it was junk. I will still enjoy it if it turns out to just be a rock.

This was located in a field in Italy, Texas. What kind of fossil is this? It looks like some sort of plant/coral that may have positioned itself on a rock. It has a smooth curve on one side with a wavy edge on the other. It has several vains and is also layered. Any clue to what this is?
A view of the fossil with coin for size. This unknown fossil is approximately 6" wide (left to right) by appox. 4". It is also nearly an inch thick. It has layers around 1/16th of an inch.
