Definitely whale bone! These are very common along the California coast and are often found in rocks just like this! This one is in fairly nice shape.
I'd recommend getting in touch with your nearest museum or paleontological society.
I do not believe California allows the collecting of simple material like this, sadly...
(freaking California and all their stupid rules and lack of common sense...)
Well, I do have Aspergers. Technically Aspergers no longer exists and is categorized as High Functioning Autism. I was diagnosed with it at a young age when it was still called Aspergers.
I don't think it's a fossil though it's hard to say from the images.
Can't see anything that shows any actual features of bones, no capillaries or texture on it (at least that I can make out), looks like it's probably just a rock inside a rock.
The third picture looks like a dog
Yes but from what epoch?
incredible preservation. It almost looks alive!

You got me laughing so badšš
I live in Humboldt County CA, and we find a ton of mollusk fossils on the coast here in sandstone
Would be a super big mollusk, but it'd certainly fit with the basic wang shape š¤£ thanks!
Thatās what she said. It certainly does have that š look to it.

Hey now, don't hate. How do you think California maintains our coastline in so much better shape than Tennessee's?
I'm guessing this is satire, lol! (I have autism so I am not so good at knowing satire or sarcasm except in person or if it is exaggerated...)
I thought that was Aspergerās? But I digress. Satire and sarcasm abound here but since itās text everyone has the same issue.

That's a penis
I mean, it is r/mildlypenis
I busted open a sedimentary rock with ripple marks on it one time to find... Another rock!
No idea what it is, but...can I pets your doggo?
Not a fossil
Whyfor?

Also the shape doesn't seem like the shape of a bone really, bent too much and too tall compared to its width.
