Here the result of the Escuminac Formation #paleostream!
These deposits from the Devonian of Canada offer a glimpse into a coastal fish community with some absolute bangers and historical favorites. But it doesn't come without it challenges.
100 million year old fishes that left traces just before they settled in their final rest. On display at Memory of Time in Jbeil, Lebanon
Over a million people have been displaced and over a thousand killed. If you feel powerless, remember you can support those in need here: gofund.me/91aa67767

Out over the Atlantic and headed home after a few great days of intense fossil fishing w/ @aminff.bsky.social & @gilespalaeo.bsky.social in B'ham. Sorted some old problems and turned up some new ones. Until next time!
