Recent Expedition: PEace river, Florida 2024

This past weekend, Prehistoric South CEO Jesse and novice “Hunter” Michael explored the primal, yet tranquil, Peace River in Florida, USA. They kayaked many miles on the waterway, stopping at various locations to dig in gravel banks and extract fossilized treasures! The Expedition was very fruitful; dozens of fossilized shark teeth were collected, along with hundreds of fossilized mammalian bone fragments, fish vertebrae, rodent teeth/bone, and Miocene aged seashells.
