I Found a HUGE Megalodon Tooth and CRAZY Wildlife on Florida Dirt Roads

I Found a HUGE Megalodon Tooth and CRAZY Wildlife on Florida Dirt Roads | Shark Tooth Fossil Hunting

This was one of my favorite adventures of the year so far! With all the raining and flooding we've had going on in Florida, I thought it would be a great opportunity to try some shark tooth fossil hunting in a few places that I knew had to be getting washed out. The roads were loaded with all kinds of cool wildlife, I got caught in a crazy thunderstorm, and I managed to find a few killer fossils to add to my collection! The wildlife itself would have made this trip worth it, but I got to see amazing lightning and get a couple giant shark teeth.

16:06 Some species of fossil mega-scallops found in Florida are apparently extremo rare. As a kid I found six in a pile and our guide flipped the eff out. Needless to say, they were sent off for research. lol They're in a museum somewhere, last I heard.

After picking through a couple of your gravel packs, my daughter now has fossil vision. We went to the beach the other day and she found a fossil clam, then traced the gravel back to an exposed rock face full of fossil shells. She's having so much fun with this.

I love the Florida fossil hunting...add in the amazing wildlife and a thunderstorm and I am captivated. If I have to pick favorites (and it's hard) as much as I loved the gators, I'm going with rarity. That monster softie in the middle of the road and that mega intact scallop. Really great work! Yes, I'm geeking out right now. I will be more chill after the next one.😁

16:20 cris pay close attention to everything around you esp to tracks on the ground it may be Florida but don’t write off any small detail as being unsubstantial as Florida is a vast tropical FLORAscape wonderland that is a very interestingly shaped kid footprint. If there are Bigfoot is it possible there are Littlefoot Pygmy type hominids…? If it struck you to at least take notice and consciously get your attention then your subconscious must’ve been screaming at you. Now think to yourself what would a child’s footprint be doing miles down a dirt road that was possibly an ancient trail at one time.possibilities are endless.think and ask yourself why,where,what . Then think travel by moonlight. think nocturnal. Think safety. Think of why one might travel on road if not want to be seen. Think of headlights at night .easy to dash out of sight if traveling on shoulder of roadway rather than daytime. Think safe passage.

@ryanlemon8267 3 жыл бұрын

Look into the Littlepeople native stories of America. And especially the Seminole And the Little people that live under there chickadee huts, that’s spoken about in their culture. Also look up mooneyed little people of the Cherokee. Many others…especially you being a paleontologist “one who studies bones” you would think you would take notice of the odd shaped footprint a very wide one at that. Pygmy people of papua new guinia now can you say Guinea pig or pyg. No coincidence only god incidents. Search and you shall find ask and you shall receive give me the eyes to to see and ears to hear and the wisdom to understand for I was once blind but now I see.

Hiya, Dude that's so awesome!!! I love watching your videos, those turtles you saw were going too lay their eggs. The soft shell turtle had sand on her back because, she just layed her eggs. I worked out in Florida probably at least 40 years ago, I wish I would have known all those fossils were on the dirt roads like that, I would have been in hog heaven. I love finding fossils. Well I gotta go, so stay safe and healthy and have a blessed great day. AND DON'T LET THE SWAMP CHILDREN GETCA!
