How mant tentacles do you think ammonites had? That's always been a big frustration with me...

@Eocene Roxton That sounds like a job for google and wikipedia .Some living nautilus's have up to 80 (if I recall correctly) . I have no idea about ammonites I'll look it up this evening .

My fossil videos will increase with monthly lectures being taped/posted .Not every speaker wants to be on You tubes though.

Really very interesting, thank you. I wonder why no-one has ever found a soft-bodied ammonite fossil?

[flyingscience]

sometimes there is a big time delay from the time you post till the time it arives .Usualy instant but not always 943 am
