It's a leather jacket. They are just so cute when you see them in the water whilst scuba diving. They are really curious and they'll swim close and have a look at you. They look hilarious with their little pointed mouths which are set in a permanent WTF moment and their cute little fins are just fanning like crazy. I simply adore the little buggers!

I dont think most folks know how long it takes to prep a fossil. I love that you show this. A dino skeleton can take many years to prep. It can be weeks on up to decades or more. FACTS Post your favorite Dino for me. I love Quetzal's.

Looks like a trigger fish but its actually a file fish and their skin was used and dried by ancient sailors to actually sand and file down wood and metal on the wooden ships.

Urchin spine or fish barb...must have been good at jigsaw puzzles! 😁🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦

Mamlambo finds a crab fossil, all is right with the world again!

I wish I had your knowledge to do the same videos in my country. 😕I love the sea and the sand and everything near the sea. I really love your videos and how kind and sweet a person you are. With all due respect🙏 May God always keep you and your family in good health. Happy Holidays and have a Merry Christmas 🎄🙏🌹

That first crab you found. I would be really interested to see what species it is especially becouse it came from a place you have not found many crabs before and see if it is a new crab to the collection or a crab you already have. And keep us updated about that tooth?….Spine ?… thing 😅

Unrelated, but when you said "new tricks" it crossed a wire in my head. So, a suggestion, get an UV light flashlight and if it so happens that you're stuck at night on the beach, returning, flash it around the rocks. I mean, chances are nothing will pop out, but in some places of this world, some rocks are going to react to UV light and really light up a spectacle. I've managed to find some in the West of US and some in the Mediterranean.

Great hunt. Nice to have an unusual find in a place that does't normally support their surroundings. It was nice of you to give away the crab. I'm sure a lot of valuable info went with it. It's what keeps other fossil hunters like myself , interested for longer by the inspiration to teach. The parrot fish was also a very cool find. I'm glad you shared that with us . Looking forward to the next one. Happy hunting

Ermagerd, the alpacas and gorgeous vista!!!

Hi Mamlambo, thank you for the nice video. Maybe it is an urchin spine ?

Another fun trip to the beach! I'm glad you found some good stuff. Keep the goodness coming. Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😷⚒ Smiles all around😎

Sea urchin spine! It looks just like a lot of the ones I've found here in our shale deposits. Very neat

Another great walk on the beach... truly miss those times. Also think it's a sea urchin spine...been a long time since harvesting those in Sicily 👍

Awesome finds!. The welk like shell is awesome! The tooth is fascinating too.

The whole tooth, and nothing but the tooth!

You always find the greatest things, love them. Awaiting your next video. Thank you

the tiny thing is a stingray barb,i have a couple of them too. great vid as always :-)

Another round of cool stuff

Took me like a year realice that you said hello everyone and not hello Ron xD great channel. Grear work. Thank you

Fab landscape and llama bonus too!

7:58 pretty, pretty country! :)

another great walk-along! I keep learning new things every video!

Such a beautiful place! Thank you for sharing!

I find it amazing how like the living creatures themselves even the fossil has a lifespan, just kind of proof that absolutely nothing lasts forever

The shell looks like a modern tulip shell. It's hard to tell if it's a true tulip or a banded tulip because it has no color. I don't know what the scientific name is, but tulips are found all over the world. Interesting!

too me, that tiny pointy thingy you removed from the silt stone looks more like a spin from a fish or a sea Urchin.

Great hunt again! And that tooth/spine thing kind of looks like a sting ray barb...

Sketchiest road I've ever driven in NZ was on the way to Akaroa. I wanted to go along the North coast road via Pigeon Bay then cut across the middle of the peninsula but my sat nav was determined to steer me away from Summit Road, it kept telling me to turn around. I realised why when I got there, a single track path going along the side of an almost mountain with no passing or turning places. Luckily I didn't meet anyone coming the other way and I was in a rental car so didn't care about driving several miles in 2nd gear. I filmed a short section of it and put it up on here (not sub fishing, my channel is mostly so friends and family can see what I'm doing while on holiday).

Another great upload👍

Leatherjacket, buy them in fish shops as creamfish

Your videos always give me the fossil hunting itch haha

Spike looks like a tiny stingray barb especially with the flattened area at the back where it would attach

The shell that you found,in the UK,are known as Whelks!

Fish spine thank you for your videos!!

A barb from a stingray maybe? Great channel thanks for posting 👍

I wish I lived in a place where I could just walk out and find fossils

Enjoyed seeing shell find & prep. Shells are mostly what l find & collect up here in waikato nth island. Triassic to recent :)

Looks like a stingray barb? pretty cool my friend

Love it ❤👍

The shell is a type of Fasciolaria and could the tooth thing be an Urchin spine?

The whole tooth, and nothing but the tooth.

cant wait for the crab prep

You should try the shell under blacklight! The ones in Florida will glow with patterns.

FYI, that was a sea lion, not a seal. Sea lions have visible ear-flaps and use their front flippers to walk.

The "parrotfish" you found is actually a triggerfish (Balistidae) ;)

I believe the tooth you found is actually a baby stingray tail barb

Interesting I would like to know more about the crab hopefully you will prep it soon two thumbs up thank you

Imagine seeing a full fossil penguin almost completely revealed but there’s a huge mail seal right next to it! 🤣

Mud fossils channel The Mud Fossil Process creates perfectly preserved

Have you ever though to fill the empty or missing parts of the crabs with resin or concrete? Then do the reveal work as per usual. Hey great vid btw. 🧡👊🏻🇨🇦

11:35 Baby Stingray Barb

Ray spine.

Do you use anything like chalk to help you mark where on these walls there's teeth and things you want to later dig out? Haha I feel like I'd lose them as soon as I'd find them. Also, what did you say to look out for before going near the wall? Overhangs?

Looks like a large banded tulip shell. (Or true tulip shell), and could that be a sea urchin spike?

What are those trees up on the hill with the orange leaves? I thot you were having Spring down there. We're the ones having Fall and Winter up here in California. 👍🤔

I'm wondering if the little "shark tooth" might actually be a very small Orthoceras?

the little spiky thing a sponge needle?

Now I would've cut the spine & possibly the teeth off that fish. 😂 Loved the shell. 😍 I collect fossilized shells. Is that an Urchin or Puffer spine tip? Another great day on the beach with you. 👍❤️ Are those your Alpacas/Llamas?

That fish is a leather jacket skins like leather tough as

Stingray stinger maybe

Is it a tiny belemnite?

The tooth is a tiny sting ray barb.

Could the tiny item be the very tip of a stingray bard?

It could be a sea urchin spine?

a teeny baby belemnite? You must have 20/20 vision to have spotted that

Might be a ray spine? (Baby sized…)

urchin spike?

Odd to see a carcass of a fish like that...aren't there Crabs there now, or maybe birds that are scavengers?

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Stingray spine

Did you ever find out what the "tooth" is, it looks like an urchin spine to me

I'm thinking fish spine

It looks like a tiny sting ray spine

Hi the tooth thing, prob. a tooth from sawfish .

It is a trigger fish

That was a trigger fish

That is a trigger fish

Hallo!

I'm going to guess a fish spine.. or an echinoid spine

🇿🇦♥️

Trigger Fish..

That is a triggerfish

Triggerfish.
