    Why are people so quick to disregard things as erosion? Lol They look at a picture and from their armchair expert opinion, give it a matter of fact determination! Royal Tyrell brushed mine off as selective erosion when it’s clearly a footprint of some kind. Selective erosion? Selective suggests intent or by choice! Lol I think they didn’t have the…[Read more]

    Oh no question. I’m familiar with pseudo fossils but I’d hate to give up until it’s a general consensus from a few different authorities and I’ll have it looked at in person. Otherwise still a cool rock! Lol

    I am, but I’m also a very smart and intuitive person. I’ve also learned that even with medical doctors or psychological doctors…PHDs didn’t always get it right.

    Well, as it turns out, The Royal Tyrell says I have nothing more than an igneous rock with several healed fractures and has undergone selective erosion…🤔

    I really appreciate the interest! I can’t seem to get an answer from the experts. Any idea where I can send the pictures other than the few I’ve tried? I haven’t heard back from the Royal Tyrell in Drumheller. They were my go to people from the start.

    No, it’s in the neighborhood of a 6 hour drive.

    Yes! I’m just learning about the area. There are pinnacles or hoodoos dating back 12 million years and there was a lot of volcanic activity. Quesnel BC Canada

    None have been reported all though lots of agate is found in found along that stretch of river. I don’t know enough about this to know if that’s relevant. Also there have been fossil bones found down in the U.S. along the same river. One thing I should have noted is that the rock is very heavy for it’s size. Suggests it’s high in iron..

    From what I could gather it could be anywhere from 10,000 to 2.6 million years. I just couldn’t narrow it down.

    Synapsid is actually one that came up when I did a reverse image on it. But it’s just not really close enough in my opinion.

    I found this over a year ago and I’m almost convinced it’s human or something that could easily be mistaken for human. To see it in person is more intriguing than the puctures.

    • Do you know the age of the rock you found it in? If it’s too old then it’s not a human footprint

    • From what I could gather it could be anywhere from 10,000 to 2.6 million years. I just couldn’t narrow it down.

    • So it could be human…do you know of any other fossils found in the area?

    • The lips kinda look like a fish

    • I didn’t know people can troll this site! Lol

    • Agate takes 50 million years to form, and are formed in igneous or metamorphic rock. Are there layered cliffs near the river?

    • Yes! I’m just learning about the area. There are pinnacles or hoodoos dating back 12 million years and there was a lot of volcanic activity. Quesnel BC Canada

    • I found an article about 29 human footprints found on Calvert Island. Is that nearby or not?

    • No, it’s in the neighborhood of a 6 hour drive.

    • I wouldn’t know, but you could try local museums and local fossil groups

    • That’s fine, you’re still finding your “footing” with fossils

    • Sometimes erosion can looks exactly like fossils, but sometimes experts can be wrong too. I wouldn’t be able to say for sure, so you could ask some more people about it. Just keep in mind that just like they might be wrong about saying it’s erosion they might be wrong by saying it’s a fossil too.

    • Oh no question. I’m familiar with pseudo fossils but I’d hate to give up until it’s a general consensus from a few different authorities and I’ll have it looked at in person. Otherwise still a cool rock! Lol
