Hello Jim H. 🐍 and Welcome to Project Noah! Here at Project Noah we share our spottings of "wildlife" with others in the PN community, and we welcome your contributions! However there are certain things to keep in mind about what is an acceptable spotting. A spotting is not only a digital photograph of a plant, animal or other organism (OR a "sign" of such an organism) but one that has been taken by you in a certain place (where it was found) at a certain time (when it was spotted). That information is what makes it a spotting (with useful information for science), and not just a photo. That's why PN does not in practice accept museum specimens, or specimens from a lab, classroom or private collection. Here is what our FAQs say on the matter: " The most important piece of information is where you found it. Make sure you record, as precisely as you can, the exact location where you found the organism." You can read that and more advice and rules here: http://www.projectnoah.org/faq So please replace this spotting with another. These bones would be fine if found and photographed undisturbed in nature. Thanks!
It's a good idea to photograph bones etc next to a ruler, so we can see how big it is. As it has no upper front teeth, it is one of the cloven-hoofed plant eaters (Artiodactyla). I'd say this is some kind of large deer - most likely a moose.
