I wouldn't bother reporting this image except.....Am I seeing dentition on this thing?? You know, teeth?

At least the did supply the raw image so many don't.

For sure I an no skeptic, but this simply looks like 3 separate unattached rocks to me!

Thanks for posting!!

I'm still seeing teeth.  Flat teeth like a plant eating dinosaur.

I would say possible, but not probable.

Well it sure looks like teeth

main point: NASA thought it was interesting enough to photograph.

I am assuming that it is small.. will need to get the scale, but it is good enough to add to the maybe collection

Thank you.  I'm not the only one who sees teeth. Looks kinda bovine-ish.

Ok, I haven't done this in awhile so I'm rusty...
BTW...I think it's just an interesting rock...

Thanks Rock!

In my view of this, there is at least 2 separate rocks, and maybe 3. The larger piece to the rear, which some might consider to be the head area, likely has no attachment to the piece with the so-called "teeth". Notice that the larger piece slopes downward, not to the piece with the teeth, but to the ground. I noticed in your video, that you made a "jag" where the end of the big rock touches the ground on its far side, but you did continue the line also on down the piece with the teeth, as if it is all one rock. The near-side ground edge of the big rock also touches the ground behind the rock with the teeth, which to me makes it appear to actually not be connected at all to the rock with the teeth. Also the top sandy-looking upper rear area of the teeth piece is so different from the bigger rock,, it pretty obviously is not connected to the larger piece.

And actually, from a "pareidolia" viewpoint, the "eye-socket" on the big rock is a key feature. If we see it as being the left socket, then we make connections with the other rocks and "teeth". If we see it as the right side socked, then we can see a whole "nuther"/different animal head, with shut/clinched mouth!!
