Huntlyfossils Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Thanks everyone for the comments and support this really was a dream come true to find a specimen like this and could not be happier. After many years of big drives and digging in 40c plus temps I finally found what I was most looking for of course we made some other neat finds on the way but this was my main goal. I will keep in contact with the museum and hopefully when they have a chance to start prepping i will post some updates. Cheers everyone and have a great xmas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
