Fossil tourism is an exciting way for travelers to connect with Earth's ancient history through hands-on experiences. Many destinations around the globe offer remarkable opportunities to uncover fossils, learn about paleontology, and appreciate the beauty of natural history.

Fossil art in progress! It feels so good to get my claws (hehe) into the paper art version of Desert Daggers at last. This Utahraptor claw will be paired with modern-day fishhook barrel cacti, in a pinky "clever girl" vibes homage to the past and present of Utah. #jurassicpark #pape

What I found in a day of fossil digging!! 🦖

Today was my first day back at the channel this summer and it didn’t disappoint! I was super lucky to end the day with two T-Rex teeth. I also found quite a few raptor teeth! My hopes for this summer is to find a Rex tooth bigger than last summer and to find interesting bones I haven’t found before
