    I found one of those vertebrae in a village in Oxfordshire when I was a kid. Thought it was a cows. Dad took it to a college and brought it back saying it was a dinosaurs. I didn’t really believe him and threw it away years later. Wish I’d kept it now!

    Does the air not affect the fossil itself? is that a setting? or is the fossil just that sturdy?

    • @marksmith2885
      @marksmith2885 14 днів тому

      If there’s a fracture within the fossil then sometimes the air will blow the loose piece away.

    If I had to get down to the beach like yall did, just put me in a wheelchair, push and wish for the best. That is definitely a tedious chore but the Ichthyosaur is worth it.
    Yall should have a rock throwing contest. 💪

    Fyi for you guys:
    I don't remember which video I asked about how many different types of ammonites there are. Anyways, I investigated. There are 6 mayor families and beneath them at least 56-7 different varieties.
    The largest ammonites are the Parapuzosia seppenradensis of which have been found fossil specimens of a whopping 1.8 meters!!!!!!

    Anyway, thanks for your work :)

    I was lucky to find two fossils, and by accident. At different times and in different places. And since then this topic has fascinated me. I tried to figure out on my own what it was. One is most likely a piece of coral. But the other... It looks a bit like a spriggina... But this is in my unprofessional opinion. Who could help with the identification?
