Hi Donna
Wonderful photos.
FYI, This is a scapula bone.
Were you able to bring any of the bones back with you?

My son just found this same type of bone washed up in Manchester, WA. Did you ever determine what it is? Pam Lindgren, Port Orchard, WA

This isn't a pelvic or a hip joint. This is actually a shouldblade from something, elk or maybe a Musk oxen. From the looks of the picture it comes from the rightside of the animal. Write back if you would like Mrs. Hollinger.

Thank you,
Andrew Dickey
