  1. It's #LostBones #FossilFriday! πŸ‚πŸ¦₯🐴🐘πŸͺπŸŸπŸƒ
    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.

  3. 🐴 Happy #Minnesota #FossilFriday! The next year of the horse isn't until 2026 but the last couple of years have uncovered many horse specimens for me and a fellow fossil hunter. Horse specimens for us are second only to Bison bison finds. One of these teeth, if verified, will be the first Pleistocene horse documented in Minnesota!
