    Hi, @walter-stein, just want to double check that this specimen is in your personal fossil collection.
    iDigBio suggests the order would be Saurischia: https://www.idigbio.org/portal/records/e6e07160-566d-4e7f-a69b-243497de6c9e

    If this is in your personal collection, if someone was interested in studying it and/or knowing the location that it was…[Read more]

    Hi, @walter-stein, is this specimen in your personal collection or is it reposited in a museum? I will include the museum information in the notes if it’s stored somewhere. Thanks, Jen

All of this material can be seen at http://www.virtualdinosaurmuseum.com . This material is either sold or donated to museums. This particular specimen is currently on display at our little “museum”, PaleoAdventures Dinosaur Field…[Read more]

        Hi, Walter, It wouldn’t be appropriate to share on iDigBio if it’s on display and has the potential to be sold at a later date. I’ve added in the field notes where it is displayed.

    Hi, @matthias-beckham! Thanks for posting in the “What Is It?” forum.  Maybe @smoran, @dserratos, or @walter-stein might be able to help you get an ID on this fossil.

    Thanks for sharing, @evan-walsh.  I wonder if you’ve gotten connected with @walter-stein or @jason-schein?  I know that they both frequently take groups out for digs, and that many of the specimens go to research institutions.

    Hi Walter @walter-stein !

    I posted pictures of my 2 black rocks or possible bone(s).  I hope you can take a look and, if you think they are something potentially, let me know.  I think they remind me of something like scutes(?).  They just aren’t a typical looking rock.  Hope you are having a great day!

    Thank you,

    Gail

    Could some of you share your criteria for what you keep and what you discard; and how you discard of it?

    After my first fossil trip I ended up with many fragments, half of me wants to keep them all and say each one is special because its 300 million…[Read more]

    @walter-stein, I went to Montana State for my undergrad–I was a (modern, not ancient!) history major though! Then I did my masters at Montana State for Science Education. I worked in the Museum of the Rockies education department throughout my undergrad and for a year during my masters before moving to Florida. Bozeman is one of my favorite…[Read more]

    @walter-stein Cool photos from South Dakota! It looks a lot like eastern Montana, where I did a week’s worth of fossil collecting with Montana State for one of my masters’ classes. I love it out there! I’m curious–what’s going on in the 5th picture (Screen-Shot-2016-05-15-at-1.32.50-AM.png)? What you’re sitting in front of sort of looks like a…[Read more]

    I think this is an interesting idea.  It might also be a good teaching tool of sorts for K-12 teachers. Let’s get some more input…
