A great place to learn about Fossil Hunting in Texas. These newsletters are basically a summary of a dedicated fossil collector's adventures and finds for almost every month of the year. It is loaded with detailed pictures and great descriptions of the finds that he comes across. The collectors' name is Dan Woehr. Dan has offered to share his findings and his love for fossil hunting and collecting with you. Through hard work and many hours of traveling, Dan has identified thousands of fossils across most of Texas that he hunts on a regular basis. Dan's original intent with the monthly newsletter was a way of record keeping for himself as well as a way to gain information about fossil sites with other serious fossil collectors. The intent is not so much to reveal specific locations to hunt as many are on private lands, but more importantly to educate others about the variety of what fossils thrived here many thousands and millions of years ago. Many of the youngest fossil finds are from the Pleistocene (Ice Age) era, when the Texas landscape was similar to what it is today. Then there are periods going back to the days of the dinosaurs when much of Texas was under water, and include a huge variety of fossil collecting from both land and sea creatures. So .sit back and get ready to read and enjoy the information and pictures that Dan has to share with other fellow fossil collectors! ===================================================== Let us know what you think.
