Interesting rock here (looks like an S-Hook or a number 5)
also among the oddities in the big photo along with, if a person looks at every inch, a snake like looking creature and 2 lizard like ones a small shovel or scoop and a ton of junk.

Well, here's my opinion.

Now, NASA lies to us because there is indeed life on Mars. It's that small we need to see a drawing of it to actually see it, and not only that, but out of a gazillion places to land, the curiosity lands right smack bang not on a dead seafloor of decaying fishies, but where there is a single lone dead fishy, that has awaited millions of years for a curiosity rover to appear and rumble his pad.

Surely this anomaly seem out of place with the surrounding terrain.
Mole of Mars?
S&F.
NASA say the object might be a part of the six-wheeled rover

oh you know
dont act dumb...its a seahorse-slug...which was ejaculated by the rover...its been a few months

... My question is why don't they stick the scoop back in and see if any more bits fall off the rover *cough*

..so the rover is falling apart?!? really...i would doubt that there is anything on the rover that could accidentily fall off with out the rover being in some type of accident...ha..something falling off the rover...Never A Straight Answer..

I think that is the answer they would like us to believe.
It managed to go hundreds of millions of miles with no issues, drops hundreds of feet from the sky crane, but it moves a few hundred meters and starts falling apart...yea ok.
I dont expect NASA to tell us the truth.

That's remarkably clear.

If this is a part from the rover, we would already know exactly which part. There would be pictures of the area of the rover where the part broke off from. We would be able to view the part as it was before the mission. Am I wrong on these assumptions?

No, in principle you're right. But I doubt that they will spend time trying to locate the exact origin, considering its miniscule size.
If it continues, perhaps they'll have to look into it closer.
That's what I imagine anyway.

I respectfully disagree. If I were a scientist working on this mission, I would find out exactly what happened and where the part fell from, for many reasons. Not one scientist working on this mission would consider your imagination of how they would treat this.
I can't even believe you're being serious. "If it continues they will look into it"? Really?

The rover engineers DO have ideas of what the piece may be, based on the looks of the material, but give the fact that the object so so small (barely 2 cm long), it would be hard to find out EXACTLY where it came from, even if it IS a broken piece of the rover (rather than -- as I said above -- a foreign piece of debris left over from building the rover, or a piece of the sky crane).
