	I found this in the sea in turkey, first I thought oh there is a paw print in the rock then I thought that must be a silly idea as how would that even happen.. it's a rock in the sea so must have been some freaky sea things that burry themselves in rocks or something and it's made the perfect paw print. The 3 bits are quite deep but hard to get depth on photos. I don't know how to add multiple photos so will do a few comments on here.

	There you go, Dude, Well done. Great pictures thank you very much. Very nice to see all sides! I think you have pretty much figured out what it is and I'd agree with the Paw Print. "Sea rock, drilled by something",... Tube Worm? Or is the rock a little coral head and those are "root" holes to some sort of appendages? Trying to figure out all the cross-hatched quartz? pattern in Pic 1. And the bottom in Pic 5 kindof looks like it could have growth layers? It's obviously a Paw Print.

	The sea is full of critters that drill holes in rocks, so that's my guess too.
