Mt_Splashmore Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Hi all! New here and getting back up to speed with the world of palaeontology! Have been Dino-mad since I can remember but haven’t really kept up with the science for a while due to University and engineering career! Last time I was ‘up-to-date’ Torosaurus and Triceratops were the same animal! It’s also only been recently since I realised real dinosaur fossils aren’t just in museums but can actually be bought and owned by anyone… seems obvious in hindsight! I’ve started my collection with two fossils that have been kindly verified here at TFF and will be keeping a keen eye out for more! Based in the UK and finding reliable sources of material seems tricky, but I’m getting there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fin Lover Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Welcome to the forum! Fin Lover My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It felt like home. It still does" -Mike (Pagurus) “The best deal I ever got was getting accepted as a member on The Fossil Forum.
