Thecosmilia Trichitoma Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 You should submit the fossil fish AND the lobster for FOTM. It will probably be a double win!

Top Trilo Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Wow that fish is a spectacular find. In the video a little crab floated by the urchin and there was a shell near an ammonite. How big did lepidotes get? It looked like a section of a really big fish. The scales were all articulated and a nice color and there was part of the fin. “If fossils are not "boggling" your mind then you are simply not doing it right” -Ken (digit) "No fossil is garbage, it´s just not completely preserved” -Franz (FranzBernhard) "With hammer in hand, the open horizon of time, and dear friends by my side, what can we not accomplish together?" -Kane (Kane) "We are in a way conquering time, reuniting members of a long lost family" -Quincy (Opabinia Blues) "I loved reading the trip reports, I loved the sharing, I loved the educational aspect, I loved the humor.

Not only got an invaluable pool of knowledge, but gained a loving family as well.” -Doren (caldigger) "it really is nice, to visit the oasis that is TFF" -Tim (fossildude19) "Life's Good! -Adam (Tidgy's Dad) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilDAWG Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I really enjoy your videos. I am quite envious though at all the ammonites and belemnites. The fish is, of course, spectacular as are the ichthyosaur vertebrae. Thanks for showing us. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
