  • This is video #1 of my Denmark trip. In the next weeks you will see more fossil hunting and preparation videos of Danish fossils on my channel :)
    Today I stay in a former quarry, called "Holtug Kridbrud" at Stevns Klint in Denmark.
    I found some awesome marine fossils, like sea urchins, sea lillies, shells, an oyster, a brachiopod which are between 66 and 70 million years old (cretaceous).
    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.
    Please leave a comment so I hear from other paleontologists :) Subscribe to my channel and turn notifications on.

    This was a fun and interesting video. Congratulations on finding your crinoids!
    I especially liked your preparation of the brachiopod. It was very good to see that a person can prepare a fossil for display without already having air scribes and Dremel tools. This method that you demonstrates makes the idea of learning to prepare fossils seem much more possible. (Were you using a table knife to carve away some of the chalk?) The brachiopod display is beautiful.

      Thank you so much for this kind comment 😃 I didn't used my Dremel because I didn't need it. Honestly I was thinking about using it, but I didn't want it because the probability that a part of the fossil can flake off (because of the vibration) is high. So I could work more accurate. The "knife" is a scalpel (with fixed blade)
      Best regards :)

      Hey Julien, glad you enjoyed the video 😃 Are you interested in a rough overwiew? So do you want to see all the filled showcases and cupboards I have in my house (with all different animals and geological eras)? Or are you looking forward to an overview just of my ice age fossils or what kind of "my fossil collection" video do you want to see?

      @@fossilwildlife5198 I will find it interesting to be able to see them all, those from different geological eras (in your display cases) and those from the glacial area as you did previously.
      But maybe in two separate videos (if you want I don't force you) to make it simpler and clearer.
      Thank you for being so attentive to your community!😄

      Hey Julien, OK awesome!
      Honestly you have to be patient because in the next weeks I will upload some more fossil hunting videos from Denmark (I found a lot) 😅 But I keep your suggestion in my mind, so I'm sure that you will see my collection in the next months 👍🏻
      Best regards

      @@fossilwildlife5198 thanks Fossil WildLife for answering me a second time and thanks for keeping my suggestion in mind 🙂. So I hope to see these fossils from Denmark in future videos and to see your collection!
      Thank you 😄!
      See you soon, in the comments of future videos!
