Hey everyone!

I mentioned sharing some videos in my introduction post, so here's the first I'm sharing with y'all!

My girlfriend Ashley and I went a couple days ago to some Pleistocene aged (1.8 million to 10,000 years ago) sites for mammal and reptile fossils. We found some older Eocene aged sharks teeth as well. Some of the highlights are a partial Tapir jaw section (unfortunately fell apart while extracting), a horse tooth, and some huge alligator teeth!

Nice finds and nice video. I have been to Rucks Pit looking for fossilized clams with calcite crystals, and other fossils.

Glad you enjoyed it! I am dying to go to Ruck's Pit. I don't know why I haven't yet, I am only a few hours away. We get some calcite clams near where I am as well.
