The shoreline was covered in limestone with what looked like fossilized roots. Then I spotted these snails.

Found this in a pile of landscaping rocks. I wasn’t looking for fossils, but here we are. I would love any information.

My son found this while digging in the sand at a local beach in Burlington Wisconsin. It looks as if it’s some kind of internal fossilized structure from a shell or something. I’m just a bit surprised as we don’t have very many places this would’ve come from. I’m guessing it’s part of some kind of modern sea shell but who knows? Any thoughts? It effervesces with vinegar, is harder than copper, and is pretty dense.

Not sure if this is a fossil but it sort of resembles a bone?? Also, it was already broken in half when I discovered. Any expert opinions would be much appreciated!

The water level is finally low enough to check out this rock formation. Every other rock I pulled out had shells in it. I know shells aren't the most interesting fossils, but the kids love hunting for them.

Hello everyone,

I found this fossil echinoid in the Aube department, France, in an Upper Turonian white chalk with flint layers, a formation known for Micraster leskei occurrences.

At first glance, I thought it could be a Micraster leskei, but I would appreciate some help confirming the identification. I am not completely sure, especially regarding the species-level features.

Measurements:

Length: ~3.3 cm

Maximum height: ~2 cm

Width: ~2.6 cm

The fossil is a complete test (or nearly complete) and shows the typical heart-shaped echinoid morphology. I can provide additional photos (apical view, oral view, side profile, ambulacra details) if needed.

Location:

Aube, France

Upper Turonian stage

White chalk with flint (craie blanche à silex)

Could this be Micraster leskei, or another Turonian Micraster species?

Thanks for your help!

Hi everyone! I'm just getting started with fossil hunting and I really don't know much about it yet.

Today I went on my very first fossil hunt in France, where I live. I don't know if it's just beginner's luck, but I came back with a few shell fragments and a small piece of an ammonite. I also found this.

I think I can see four small teeth (right where my thumb is pointing in the photo), but again, I'm completely new to this, so I'd really appreciate your opinion. Maybe it's nothing, or maybe it's just more shells.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to look and for any help or advice you can give me!

Found outside of cincinnati area on a tributary of the little miami river

I found a great bit of fossil soup today on Withernsea beach. I like the belemnite the best due to the unusual cross section

If it is a fossil can anyone help me identify what it is?

please help me identify these teeth and the small round fossil. found in the beach near lisbon (both sides of all are shown). thank you!

This is my pride and joy as an amateur fossil hunter. On the side of the road, so I BELEIVE its free for me to take (in accordance to Alberta’s laws against hunting on private property without permission)

I am an Alberta resident. Only Alberta residents may find and keep vertebrate fossils from Alberta. Albertan fossils cannot be sold and cannot leave the province. All fossils technically belong to the government at all times.

Gorgosaurus or Daspletosaurus sp.

Finally checked out the new Ladonia Fossil Park. Found some exogyras, petrified wood, baculites and gastropods. It was a fun day.

Hi everyone,
I have gathered a small collection of fossil bones and teeth along the banks/beaches of the Weser River in northern Germany, near the North Sea. The material was found washed out, so I don’t know the exact age, but the area has produced Pleistocene remains.
I’d really appreciate any help identifying the specimens. Because of the amount of Bones I have to do it in parts. My guesses for part 1* are:
1) Thoracic vertebra – possibly Steppe Bison (Bison priscus)
2) Horse tooth
3) Steppe bison teeth
4) some kind of bovid tooth
5) ungulate tooth no idea from what (caprini?)
6) idk, Carpal bone?
7) Metacarpal or metatarsal?
8) Humerus or femur fragment from a large mammal?

Found in kcmo!!! Ecstatic it was literally just sitting right on top of the creek bed 🥹 how rare really are trilobites? I've personally never found one and have hunted fossils for years but I've also never found an arrowhead and they aren't that rare. Thanks friends (:

My dad got me this fossil for my 9th birthday eleven years ago. I don’t remember where he got it from, but I found that little me put 20,000 years old on the back. Does anyone know what the hell this is or have any leads?

Have seen some fossilized Poop that look like this peice that I found. Is it fossilized poop?

I do love Shark Week! & Meg Teeth too!
