I've seen them before too, I want to say part of vertebrae of alligator gar??

They have plenty of gar and plenty of snapping turtles, looks like the darker ones are the older ones.

Gatorboy had answered my question earlier. LOL! I couldn't think for the world what it was, but I've seen enough with alligators & alligator farmers in my area.
