  • Today I show you my collection of fossils I found at river banks. The bones and (bison) teeth are between 126.000 and 12.000 years old (late pleistocene/ ice age). But some of them are from the Holocene (12.000-today).
    I would really appreciate it if you LIKE this video and SUBSCRIBE to my channel :)

    Welcome to my channel Fossil Wildlife :) My name is Basti (nickname of Sebastian) and I´m a fossil hunter from Germany.Because I´m a member of a fossil club in my town I can go fossil hunting in all different quarries and fossil locations in Germany (and Europe) and I learn a lot from the other members. I want to share my fossil adventures with you so come with me to explore the world of paleontology and to unearth these fossils of the prehistoric wildlife.

    There were Elephants and Rhinoceroses in Europe in that time.

    So happy to see a fresh video on your channel! And even more so to see that you didn't change the format!
    Welcome back and looking forward to new fossil adventures!

      I really appreciate all your comments 👍🏻 In the next weeks you will see awesome (cretaceous) fossils I found in Denmark :)

    The part of the video where you talked about how you could tell where the bison tooth sat in the jaw by looking at the number of (cusps?) was particularly interesting. Do you know if that tooth separated from the jaw before or after the animal perished? It seems like a difficult sort of tooth to lose in life.

      The layer (also in the gravel pit) is river sediment, so the river transported the skeltons. And in the sand/ sediments in the river the bones were imbedded. These movements in the fossilization process are the cause that all kinds of bones and single teeth of different animals are together in one place. So the tooth separated after the animal perished 👍🏻 Thanks for commenting

      @@fossilwildlife5198 Thank you for answering my question, and explaining how the separation probably happened!
