  • Hello everyone, my name is Ilya, and I'm from Russia. Few people know, but I have an interesting hobby - paleontology. In this video I want to show you the search for fossils on the Volga River. In the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, there was a huge sea here, inhabited by ammonites, belemnites, as well as terrible marine dinosaurs...

    Are the ammonites so common that you can just hack away willy-nilly with a heavyhanded chiselling technique? Don't misunderstand me, please, I love how much effort you put into the filming and editing, and the information you have provided here is very good. I just think more care should be taken not to break off chunks around the edges when digging them out.

      @@bobgreenthumb8066 They have made a small museum out of the collection, it is shown in one of their videos , but I do agree more care should be taken when removing specimens

      A big problem with the collectors is that they remove the fossils from their locations. When actual palaeontologists or geologists go for field studies they don’t find them. Collection is good for hobby but it is of no use if the fossils aren’t identified correctly or just picked up without noting their coordinates and geological formations.

    you need to be more careful in trying to extract fossils… that way you would not destroy them…. when there gone there gone for good!

    You are getting to close to the ammonites with your chisel. Your chisel looks like a wood chisel. Try to find a chisel made for rocks. Like a landscapers chisel.

      only in certain places its allowed to hunt for fossils like this.
      in other areas its strictly forbidden, in others you can look and dig for but not take fossils because they will be confiscated by the government.
      it all depends where you live and where you want to dig for fossils.
      you should always check beforehand if its legal to hunt

    We have similar preservation here in Texas of the ammonites, only we don’t find Belemnites. Ichthyosaur bones are also very rare.
    We have lots of ammonites though.

    Wow starting off with a massive Parkinsonia parkinsoni or Titanites giganteus ammonite print! Then a large piece of petrified wood with woodworms! Then a MASSIVE (I believe as I can’t see any groves from this footage) Acrocoelites belemnite. Then another maybe Cylindroteuthis. Another MASSIVE Parkinsonia! That annelid worm may be the best! I’m not familiar with the species though.
