An Introduction to Zoology - Friday, 1st Period
That morning Cutter had arranged for both his classes to meet at serenity cove, he was feeling a lot better from the weekend and his bandages were now gone so he had more use of his hands, “this morning we’re going to be doing something a little different and go on a fossil hunt around the serenity cove and light house area, this area has proved to be rather successful in finding fossils, so I thought that we could have ourselves a bit of a hunt around this area and see just what we can find here,” he said with a smile.
“There are four types of fossils that you can look out for,” Cutter continued, “they are trace fossils - which are preserved with an animal’s behaviour or activity such as trilobite tracks,” no one was surprised at all by this point that Cutter had mentioned trilobites were they? “And then there are fossils with some organic material preserved such as a removal of all organic material except carbon, which remains as a film in the rock and mineralised fossils which is where a organic matter is replaced gradually by mineral such as Replacement of organic material in bone with minerals and finally impression fossils, which when the remains decay completely but leave an impression in the sediment and examples of these can include internal impressions such as trilobites and external ammonites or impressions of armoured fish or tree barks,”
“and today I’m being joined Connor Temple, he teaches Dinosaurs 101 with me, if you need help or having any questions you can ask either myself or Connor and we’ll be happy to assist,” Cutter smiled over at him, trying not to worry that Connor would be doing so much walking but Connor had assured him that he was fine with small brace and he would be able to manage to do the hunt, “happy hunting,” he said with a smile and let his classes go off to to explore.
