  1. #LostBones #FossilFriday 🐂 Five bison species are said to have roamed North America: The Eurasian Bison priscus adapted into Bison latifrons, which downsized into Bison antiquus. Later, Bison occidentalis emerged in the Late Pleistocene, leading to today’s Bison bison. Are they all distinct, or was it a gradual shift?

  2. 🦌#Minnesota #FossilFriday 🐂🦥🐴🐘🐪🐟🍃Remnants of deer and bison are common along many Minnesota rivers. Teeth, metacarpals, metatarsals, and some long bones withstand the erosive forces of rivers particularly well.

    These specimens were all found during a single kayak trip this field season, along just a two-mile stretch of river in southern Minnesota.

    A remarkable find: Two neighbors contributed a total of 100 bison bones, discovered in separate years from the same lowland peat deposit spanning a highway in Walcott County, Minnesota. Notably, one of the collections shows possible signs of butchery.

    Both collections are now at the Rice County Historical Society in Faribault, Minnesota.

  7. 🐂#LostBones #FossilFriday🦥🐴🐘🐪🐟🍃 In 1983 while constructing a reservoir in Sherburne County Minnesota a farmer came across hundreds of jumbled bison bones.

    in 1984, due to the nature of the site and the distribution of the bones, Dr. Stanley Lewis of St. Cloud State University concluded that the bison had possibly been washed in during a flood event.

  17. Happy #Minnesota #FossilFriday! 🦬🐪🦣🦥🦫🍃 What is the most common Bison bison specimen found in river gravels besides teeth in Southern Minnesota? It's usually a metacarpal or a metatarsal.

    These stout solid bones survive well within a river's fluvial processes. Here are a few example specimens.🦴
