Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such.

Lovely stuff, Bobby!

Merry Christmas! 

Thanks Adam the Deninger’s bear was interesting find. I think it is an primitive ancestor of the brown bear .

10. This is one of my favourites a Desmostylus tooth , Tembolar formation.

Montorey County,

Lake San Antonio, California .image.jpeg

 

Until I receive this tooth I had never heard of a Desmostylus so in the unlikely event of anybody else on this forum also does not recognising the name of this creature. I have posted a picture I found online.

Why yes, that is the lagoon in my backyard. I have been getting into the hobby of cloning as of late. 

The varieties of creatures I have living with me now are amazing. But with so many of these large animals (I only seem to clone the big ones), I am running out of room in my apartment.

12. This is interesting becuase of the old Victorian  label and Piddocks holes .

Mammal bone is labelled Mastodon but more likely a Whale.

Norwich crag UK

 

As we all know that Piddocks are anything but boring :D
