Dry Dredgers Trilobite Fossils at Cincy Museum Center

[triskut]

Glad we have museum fans, I was a one of the people you saw working on fossils in the live lab...there are unimaginable things we have in collections. P.S. most of the fossils you were talking about were actually replicas. Are there any road cuts around Cincy that you look for Bites in? There was one that I always got specimens out of on 275 in KY.

@triskut The Dry Dredger case specimens are real trilobites .

We also speculate about gravity. And we will eventually answer those hard questions, like we always have. The world was flat, was center of universe, sun revolved around earth, ect. All I can say is I'm happy in the,"invisible particles that are constantly changing" club. I won't attack your beliefs though. Believe what ever you want IDK. All I know is I don't have to attack other;s beliefs in a attempt to strengthen how I view my own. =)

What does heaven have to do with trilobites?

Why do creationist think every scientist is an atheist?

Why don't you open a geology book so you know what you are talking about.

[gregrutz]

Thou shalt not lie, you don't get to go to heaven.

[gregrutz]

you maybe missed the date by 500 million years, give or take a few million years.

Trilobites normaly get a height of 8 to 12cm, but the biggest forms are 75cm.

I like the forms of their dorsal armor.

Very, very nice work, Greg.

I live on the Nashville Dome in Central Tennessee and used to do alot of collecting and studying of the Ordovician Cincinnatian Series.

I'm very impressed and wish that the comments were enabled on your channel.

Drop me a line, I'd love to talk.

What did trilobites eat?

[flyingscience]

Trilobites diets varied , some scavengers ate detritus , some where predators eating sea worms .See my introduction to trilobite videos for more info .

[BlackManedLions]

WONDERFUL video, why disable the ratings? It's a 5 star. :)

[onsevaikeaa]

Nice Isotelus collection.

[flyingscience]

At 3:00 the fossil is of two individuals not a whole one in half .The give away is the number of middle segments cant be more than 8 for isotelus.

Thanks for sharing. Can I go hunting with you guys ?

[flyingscience]

The Dry Dredgers meet every month, the 4th saturday we go out . Look at my fossil hunting field trip videos to see them in action.

[flyingscience]

We dont go in January -too cold .Febuary might be an indoor field trip 2 museum ? March 4 sure , anyone can come .Look at Dry Dredger web site 4 info.

[flyingscience]

No one finds giant trilobites like this as a beginner , look at the 2 fossil hunting field trip videos to see what its like.

[flyingscience]

Usualy people can drop in 4 free to try things out .Locations are kept secrative to non members you will have 2 write me 4 info.

[flyingscience]

Tonights lecture - how science dates the earth .And I do the beginners class - Introduction to Sea Scorpions at UC campus.

[flyingscience]

This species is very commonly found as pieces , whole ones are best found splitting shale .

[geyser]

Thanks for these videos...

[mindwis3]

I want a trilobite too, as it seems an Ichthyostega is a bit out of reach.

Thanks for this series flyingscience, i really enjoy them.
