Always have been facinated by fossils, guess I will see where this interest will lead me to.
Totally. I mean you can't go wrong with taking a walk in nature can you 😜
Flipping cool, One of my bucket list must-dos is to see Joan Wiffen's Dino and fossil bones.
Well worth a see. Such an important part of NZ geological history. There is also a display at the Napier Aquarium which is pretty cool, they've recreated her shed 😄
Please can you repost a copy of this with no music ? It's so intrusive.
Thanks for the feedback, will make sure our future videos are less intrusive. Will try my best to get another vid up 👌
So cool I am totally going to do that sometime.
YES! Super cool to see. Napier Aquarium also have a pretty cool set up of Joan Wiffen fossils where they've recreated her workshop
Cool i have to go Napier see her finds awesome.
Definitely! Well worth it, you get to see a sweet little remake of Joan’s workshop, very cool
Is this in Napier?@@forfossilssake
musics abit much😅 interesting otherwise
Fair enough, cheers will take note of that 👌
If there is a New Zealand then where is Old Zealand?
Haha. Old Zealand is buried underneath, im diggin it up, one rock at a time 😅
@@forfossilssake thank you for your efforts, I just saw a video about an archaeological dig in Miami & land developers were pushing for them to "hurry up".
@@raymondjjohnsonjr363 such a shame. Thats how important archeological history gets destroyed right 😲 i can only imagine how many fossils are destroyed in NZ as they bulldoze new roads and highways
@@forfossilssake Miami just took down a large building. Archaeologists have a limited amount of time to discover what they are going to discover before the new building has to go up.
"old" Zealand is in Denmark
Please don’t call marine reptiles and pterosaurs “Dinosaurs.” As a teacher, I have to unteach these ideas, and it isn’t easy at times after people put these ideas into kids’ heads.
These are some of the few dinosaur bones in nz very rare.. mixed in with marine reptiles and other creatures. Aware of the difference will do a video just on that soon
Awful music selection. 👎
Will search for a better selection of music!
