A forensic investigation has determined that bones found at a construction site on Sydney’s northern beaches are from an animal.
On Wednesday, officers attended a construction site on South Creek Road, Cromer, at around 10.45am after a number of bones were excavated.
The bones were taken for forensic examination, but police said this morning that the results indicated the bones did not belong to a person.

It is known that the subjects of several notorious missing persons cases were last seen in the northern beaches area.
Lynette Simms, a mother of two, disappeared without a trace from the Bayview home she shared with her husband Chris Dawson in January 1982.
Cromer is about 12 kilometers south of Bayview and 13 kilometers south of Newport, where 18-year-old Trudie Adams disappeared in February 1978.
Chris Dawson was found guilty of murdering his wife in August 2022 and jailed for a minimum of 18 years.
