Hey everybody! Im JT, 31, hailing from the Seattle area in WA. I started collecting fossils, mainly of dinosaurs, last year. I've viewed some parts of this forum for a while, but finally got around to making an account. Big thanks to everyone here for contributing and sharing their knowledge, the wealth of information on this site is fantastic. Hoping to go on a dig in the midwest in the next few years, a bucket list dream for sure. Cheers

Hi! My name is Annika. I have these two stones my cousin gave me. He also doesn't know what they are, but could they be gastroliths? If not, what could they be?

Hi all I really think the Hadrosaurs were very cool dinosaurs and not just as a food source for the T.rex. So in celebration of the great beasts please show us your Hadrosaurs material . Hadrosaurs are dinosaurs that are members of the family Hadrosauridae, and include ornithopods such as Edmontosaurus and Parasaurolophus. They were common herbivores in the Upper Cretaceous Period of what are now Asia, Europe and North America. Edmontosaurus annectens Metacarpal V found at the famous Hell Creek Formation... Late Cretaceous Period Montana. The missing one in photo that Frank @Troodon sent me when he kindly identified it for me before I purchased for a real steal. As our village has started to put up their Christmas decorations early to offer some much needed joy , so I made a Santa to Edmontosaurus scale drawing I think it will make a great greetings card and adds a little whimsy. Stay safe and sound Bobby

Yesterday I received received a PM from Rich @stats to see if I wanted to go collecting with him on Mazon Creek, but I told him that I had to pass since I was going to the zoo with my grandson AJ. Now, if I was just going with my wife to the zoo, I would have been on the creek right now collecting- It was a great day, with great weather and there is no better way to spend a Sunday that with my son and his family. Here are a bunch of pictures of the exhibits, it was great for everyone. Here is a picture of me and AJ. And now a picture of my son Alex and wife Izzy + AJ. Now on with the other pics.

Chenanisaurus Barbaricus Tooth? Or Carch?
Kurufossils posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Came across this tooth labeled as an abelisaurus belonging to chinanisaurus barbaricus from the Maastrichtian supposedly found in the phosphate mines of the Ouled Abdoun basin. Looks pretty thick to be abelisaurus and comparable to an extent to some carcharodontosaurus teeth. Is there a way tell the difference or will there need to be more specifics involved.

I dont mean to sound so ignorant but ive been watching some dino type shows on TV and I realized a question. On one of the shows a guy was pointing out the KT boundry. Then he goes on to say that below this boundry dinosaurs can be found and that above this bondry no dinosaurs can be found. On another show they were talking about how birds are decendants of the dinosaurs. So, my question is, How can birds have evovled from something that went extinct 65 million years ago? I know there must be a simple answer,,,,, but what the heck is it? RB

Hello all, I was waiting a while to show my ever growing collection until I finally got this new shelf. I wanted to paint it to look similar to my other shelf, install these neat colour changing lights, organize things and move everything...then take photos! I had stored everything in my bedroom for a while but now everything is front & center for visitors. As has has been made obvious by my many ID posts and couple threads in the, “fossil hunting trips” section, I live in a fossil rich area have access to much land to collect from frequently, so I will use this thread for updates with future finds. I’m very proud to say that much of my collection, mostly the dinosaur stuff, has been found by me rather than been bought, though there is a lot of money invested here. If you would like more or better pictures, info or would like to help me ID anything in this collection that I’m unsure about (I’m severely lacking in physical labels at the moment) don’t hesitate to ask.

Well, I figured that I should start a member’s collection. Sorry for my absence, I was busy with college classes. I did great this semester, and I even won a student leadership award! With that being said, I’m gonna start my collection off with a piece that I acquired for my birthday! My 22nd Birthday is tomorrow (June 14th), and I was strapped for money. My father and grandmother chipped in, and helped me acquire this chromium woodworthia piece from a local rock shop that I frequent! It’s from Arizona, and it only cost $60 USD! I’ll try to be active here whenever I can, as I am exhausted from this semester of college (having to abruptly switch to an online format due to COVID-19). I’ll have to link other threads of my fossils and post pictures of my previous additions to my collection to this thread whenever I have the time!

I wanted to try some new spots that are closer to home, so a family here was nice enough to take me out to their land near Dinosaur Provincial Park and allow me to surface collect. I only kept two things (wasted a good portion of the day searching for tyrannosaur teeth to no avail) but I did find some neat stuff so I thought I’d share. Please excuse the circling and the caption, those were for Instagram. Nice & green this time of year. Won’t look like that for long. Heres something I found a few times today; random pits of petrified wood just shattered. Here’s a good 10 inch chunk that I kept. More petrified wood. Dino bones. Most of them were broken and difficult to tell what they were, as the dinosaur park area bones usually are. Please excuse the circling. It was for Instagram. This was the largest bone I seen today, was over 2 feet long most likely but it was at an awkward place so I didn’t climb any higher to get close. Excuse the caption. This one was fairly large as well. This one I kept because it was one of the only good condition bones that wouldn’t require excavation. Hadrosaur toe bone. (thanks jpc for the help)
