1 year, 1 month ago1 year, 1 month agoI assure you this is not a recent fish, as far as the color .Maybe a first, . I would never make up any kind of story Obviously testing will be needed ,I’m very excited to have the fish authenticated. I have not been able to find another one like it. I should be hearing from Perot Museum soon.

extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. I am not saying that whether this is or is not a fossil at this point. Is the material it came out of rock, clay or dried up mud? What is the location? What is the geologic formation it came out of? What other plant or animal material is found in the matrix? Photos of the immediate…[Read more]
