Made a quick trip last week to the North Sulphur River. Very dry and in need of a good flush, but still lots of small, fun to collect fossils to be found! Found a nice enchodus tooth, a goblin shark tooth, and a small mosasaur verterbra. #northsulphurriver #fossils #mosasasur #sharktooth

Had a good day on the North Sulphur River - a very nice mosasaur vert! I just happened to look down when my girlfriend started digging into the wall and there it was! Even in dry and hot weather and a picked over river, there are still cool things to be found! #fossils #mosasaur #northsulphurriver

This is what it looks like when a country has a functioning, non-corrupt Supreme Court. It's a shame that America has fallen so fast so quickly.
President of a country found guilty of attempting a coup. God I've prayed for that headline here in America, looks like Brazil beat us to it.

Spent the day at Post Oak Creek looking for shark teeth. Found several but the find of the day was a Pleistocene Era (ice age) bison toe bone! We also found a couple sea snails and the smallest shark vertebra I have ever seen. #fossils #Pleistocene #sharkteeth #postoakcreek #vertebra

Spent a morning this week in a tributary to the North Sulphur River. Best find was digging a Pleistocene Era (Ice Age) bison leg bone out of the wall. A few very well worn mosasaur verts and several small sea snails. #mosasaur #northsulphurriver #fossils #bison #iceage #snails

A few finds from yesterday's trip to the north sulphur river. A nice mosasaur vertebra, a fish tooth (most likely from the group of extinct fish called the saber-toothed herrings), and a Pleistocene Era bison ankle bone. #fossils #northsulphurriver #mosasaur #fishtooth #Pleistocene

Another fun day in the North Sulphur River. Cool finds included the smallest and cutest baby mosasaur vertebra I've ever seen, an ammonite imprint, and a shark tooth from an extinct species of goblin shark which we found in a bank slide. #fossils #northsulphurriver #sharkteeth #mosasaur

Went to Davis Creek (trib to N. Sulphur River in Northeast Texas) on a specific quest for ammonites in the red zone. Found a little cute one and many other broken pieces. Picked up a nice mosasaur vertebra on the trek back to the bridge! #fossils #northsulphurriver

Catching up on a couple of our fossil hunting expeditions from last week in northeast Texas. Bones, ammonites, oysters, clams, baculites, sea turtle shell fragments, and petrified wood. Found a Native American drilled shell bead which is extremely cool!! #northsulphurriver #fossils

This is a malleco spiny-chest frog. This species had not been seen in 130 years until recently when two thriving populations were found in Chile! #frog #rediscovery
