Sara immediately thought of her old friend Archie the Archelon when she saw his favorite snack.

Sara standing on my best find of the day, and my best find ever! A complete mammoth molar (Mammuthus primigenius, Weichselian late Pleistocene)

 

So clearly Sara had a fantastic day, and so did I! We made a bunch of other cool finds that day, which I will share later, so she definitely seems to be a very good fossil hunting companion!

I'll post some more pictures of her adventures here in The Hague soon, but there isn't a great lot... She indeed had a nice, long, and well-deserved rest here.

However she does feel ready to depart to her next destination this weekend, so I must book her flight now!

So since Sara helped you find it,  is the molar going into her cache box? :default_rofl:

If it fits, sure :P

Can I have Sara a second time? Need to bring her to Solnhofen quarry. Maybe I'll find an Archeopteryx with her :P

Epic find! I think that Sara may have helped you to find the winner of the fossil of the month contest, or at least a worthy entry! :zzzzscratchchin:

  • 1 month later...

Max was going to post her near the end of October. 

But I reckon that he decided to keep her after that mammoth molar find. ^_^

Hey guys, sorry for not updating on what's been happening, but Sara has been sent out to her next destination a few weeks ago already...

@thelivingdead531, did Sara arrive yet?

He figured she was good luck for his fossil finds so Max kept her around until he finished his school exams in hopes of improving his scores. :fingerscrossed: ;)

I'm starting to think I should've done that! :P 

But that means she would've stayed till mid-January with me...
