Here's another form found on the earth.
1. What is it?
2. Where was it found?

Hint # 1: This one is a bit different.

It looks like a reptile skin, possibly from the side of a crocodilian, or it's leg. A Komodo monitor might fit it as well
Again, photography being what it is, I dunno.

| Kind of close, though inexact! I'll award you 1/2 point on the first question.
Hint #2: This is writ in stone.

Ok, got it.
It's in Petersburg KY and it's a closeup of a patch of hide on one the Creation "Museum's" 6,000yo, bullshit dinosaurs.

Sorry, no additional game points, or fractions thereof. Another half-point for the word, "dinosaur." But we need exactitude, here. Also, the location you gave is incorrect.

It's a Hadrosaur skin fossil from Wyoming, now kept in the American Museum of Natural History.
