Between 2009 and 2016, the Panama Canal was expanded, providing an opportunity for researchers to excavate fossils at previously inaccessible. These fossils provide answers to questions about ancient ecosystems and climates, as well as the anatomy, behavior and physiology of ancient organisms. Bruc
way of collecting fossils is by collecting up the sediment

Remember this? Walk down memory lane with us to look at past special exhibits we’ve enjoyed here at the Florida Museum! While this exhibit has moved on to other places, we treasured the opportunity to learn and explore. Find out what exhibits are currently here at the Museum: Science Up

Humans and other primates are outliers among mammals for having nails instead of claws. But how, when and why we transitioned from claws to nails has been an evolutionary head-scratcher. Now, new fossil evidence shows that ancient primates – including one of the oldest known, Teilhardina brandti
, smaller than a grain of rice, by screen washing sediment

An analysis of more than 70,000 fossils indicates that mollusk communities were incredibly resilient to major climatic shifts during the last ice age. Scientists from the Florida Museum of Natural History and several European research institutions tracked the history of Adriatic ecosystems throug

Using the fossil record to accurately estimate the timing and pace of past mass extinctions is no easy task, and a new study highlights how fossil evidence can produce a misleading picture if not interpreted with care. Florida Museum of Natural History researchers used a series of 130-foot cores

Carol and Bill Sewell started volunteering at the Montbrook dig site on December 7, 2016. Altogether, Carol dug at the Montbrook Site for a total of 116 different days compiling 630 hours. She collected, either by herself or with others (most often, but not always, with Bill), hundreds of fossils at
teeth of this specimen were mostly left encased in sediment

We get questions like this a lot. This question came by tweet. We turned to Richard Hulbert, Florida Museum’s vertebrate paleontology collection manager, for a concise answer. The short version: The shark teeth found in Gainesville creeks are true fossils as that term is used by paleontologis
shed, or the animal dies and the tooth is buried in sediment
