Cetáceos (Infraordem Cetacea)Observador
hardingleeDescrição
ID help please. I took this (bone circled in white) to be a whale vertebra, the only common cetaceans being Beluga and Bowhead. But its long, symmetrical processes do not seem to match images I found on-line. The site also has human bones and cultural items (sleds etc., tin cooking implements) that suggest late 19th or early 20th Century Inuvialuit. Same bone in both images. Photographed about July 15, 1973.
