Found a bone a creepy place, help ID it plz

So my kids and I was exploring a small trail going into a forest near a parking spot in a pretty desolate place.

And oh boy, I think this is a meeting place for some shady people, there where used needles, condoms old sleeping bags.
I instantly regretted taken my kids there, told my kids not to touch anything and we moved on.
The small trail got smaller and smaller, and we came to the end of it, there where some loose dirt and a bone.

roughly 12 inches I would say, normally I would think some kind of bone from wild life, but that creepy place made me think what if its human.. and that loose dirt is where the rest of the bones where. I took some pictures and we hastily left.

It looks like either the rear or front leg of a Deer , that curve in it does not seem human but then again I'm no expert.

It's not human. It looks like it's from a deer as asabuvsobelow said.

Yea I don't think it's human either would have to know the local fauna but a deer is highly likely

Rear deer femur IMO.

Thanks guys, my kids going to be happy to hear that

A femur for sure as others suggested. As to the animal, deer, goat, sheep, boar, etc.
Deer is certainly most likely. But there is no reference to actually scale the size of it.

I don't want to alarm you, but I'm pretty sure that bone is from one of these things:

Dog Femur?

It appears kinda long so I would guess it was a deer too. I suppose I can go out by the road where I pulled a deer that got hit by a car and grab one of the bones if they are still there. It got hit about a year and a half ago, last fall the majority of the bones were still there, everything else rotted away.

Not a femur, a humerus.
Femur has a ball on the end of it, that fits in the socket of the hip.

ETA:
Not a humerus, but a tibia.

Well mind you it depends on what killed it, could be a crazed squatter in the woods,a pack of coyotes, hell bigfoot this is ATS after all
