Frequently Asked Questions About Fossil Identification and Collecting Search for: Can I collect fossils I find in New Mexico? I think that I have found a dinosaur bone. What should I do? Where are good fossil collecting localities in New Mexico? Can I collect the fossils I find in New Mexico? Yes and no, it depends on what kind of fossils you've found and where you found them. Vertebrate Fossils: Any vertebrate fossil (one that looks like a fossilized bone) found on federal, state, or tribal land cannot be legally collected without special permission. This protection is to ensure that these rare vertebrate fossils can be carefully excavated and studied by experienced paleontologists at research institutions, and can add to our understanding of our natural history heritage. Vertebrate fossils found on private land belong to the land owner, so permission must be obtained to collect from them as well. If you are determined to be part of a dinosaur excavation in New Mexico, you're best option is to contact one of the paleontology museums in New Mexico that runs a volunteer program.

Blog Contact Us About GuideTo ... Resources A Collection of Paleontology Resources Georges Cuvier, a French zoologist, was one of the first to establish the field of paleontology when he compared living things to fossils he had discovered. He established the theory of extinction, when he used comparative anatomy to examine the fossils of two elephants of different species with yet a third species that, indeed, no longer existed, which he named the mammoth. He conceded that this species must be extinct as it no longer was present on the planet. He then discovered yet a third elephant in the Ohio area that differed from the other three that he named the mastodon, which also must be extinct. Thus came the birth of paleontology and the importance of the examination of fossils was realized. Various types of fossils are excavated and examined by paleontologists. Vertebrate paleontologists study vertebrate fossils, from mammals to fish and birds. Ichnologists study fossils of footprints and tracks. Paleoecology is the study of the climate in the past, as evidenced in fossils. Invertebrate paleontologists study mollusks, worms, and other invertebrate animals, and palynologists study living and fossil spores and pollen. Each of these is necessary to determine the variables of each time period; and the variables and study of the variables is important because what has happened in the past can give scientists a glimpse into what is happening now and what could happen in the future.

Burke Paleontology Paleontology is the study of past life forms, based on plant and animal fossils and their geological contexts. Paleontologists use fossil remains to trace the evolutionary history of extinct and living organisms and to study past climates. The Burke Museum's paleontological collections contain more than 3 million specimens of fossil invertebrates, vertebrates, plants, single-celled protists, trace fossils, and modern mollusks. A portion of these collections is on display in the museum galleries. Update on Collections: The Burke Museum and the Dean's Office of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Washington recently commissioned a report on the Burke Museum's vertebrate paleontological collections and have now received it.

Our dinosaurs are dead and have been for 65 million years. Long before paleontology became popular, sites within our region were famous worldwide for the extremely rich fossil beds and accessible dinosaur skeletons. New and exciting finds are still being made every year, including the first-ever discovery of dinosaur eggs in Montana and the first full-sized Allosaurus in Wyoming. The region was, and is, a true "Jurassic Park." Days 1/2 - Arrive Denver One of the most extensive dinosaur exhibits in the nation is at Denver Museum of Natural History. Called "Prehistoric Journey," the $7.7 million exhibit will offer visitors a unique look at prehistoric life, following a cobblestone path and entering an "enviroroama" where they’ll be immersed in a 3.5 billion year old landscape.
