I was told it was found some decades ago in a river bed in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I tried image searching it but couldn't quite find an equal one.

Also looks wrong for the location. Does anyone know which animal could it have been?

Is this just a fun anecdote or are you telling me something about my guess? Because I just woke up and don't know how to take things yet

Just an anecdote. I agree with you that it is probably some sort of pinniped (seal or sea-lion)
