I knew this was a cone, but I didn't touch it, because some cones can kill. Guess I should have done my homework, because there's only one cone in CA, and it's not dangerous. For the unaware, cones hunt worms, snails, and even fish, by shooting venom-filled retractable harpoons out of that tube in front.

The orange and white shell fragment, fourth from the right, Conus leviteni. This does not have the dark wavy lines between the white marbles, that a Textile Cone would have. Found sometime between 6-1 and 6-10.
