is it just me, or does anyone else hate to see fossils get broken chipped or anything of the sort happen, it just makes me stressed out to see ancient history just being lost. Also love the video, it taught me a lot.
Loved the video and the bit on how they got their name. I am in Southern Alberta so it’s all about Ammolites, Bearspaw formation and the gems that can be made from them. Loved the video and science rather than just the gems that can be made from them.
I was just at the Royal Tyrell museum! It is all so fascinating, it has been a while since I have done a Dino deep dive. I came here because of all the beautiful ammonites on display at the museum.
I’ve got one from the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, and always wanted to know more about it. Thank you so much for your fine presentation. I really appreciate it. 🙏. I. Keep my ammonite next to a nautilus shell, and a crystal nautilus shell. Makes a nice trio! 🤗
Nice. I like ammonites, they have so different shapes of their shells, some looks like a paperclip. Some scientists believe, that some species survived the createcous age into the danian age.
Thank you for a very informative presentation. I found a 12 cm ammonite several decades ago while walking through some woods near the DFW Airport. I would like to learn more about the animal that inhabited this shell and how I may clean and perhaps polish the shell. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I do have a question for you. I have what I believe to be an ammonite, first discovered by me between 1973 and 1975 in Germany while on field maneuvers in a U.S. military training area. It’s a circular spiraling shape about 5” in diameter and about 1” thick. It’s mostly light orange in color, though other parts of it are darker and look like pieces of shell. It is still intact exactly as I found it… never brushed, never cleaned, or exposed to water, etc. I would really appreciate your help in identifying what it really is, and approximately how old it might be. Thank you in advance… I can also send you pics of it if you like.
In Biology there is a large group (clade) of animals called bilateria. They have a symmetry axes (as an embyro) in common, which divide the body in a left and right side (mirror). we humans and the bilvalves are also members of this large group which evolved for a really long time... therefore the expert says right and left for describing the morphology and anatomy of those animals.
Hah, bivalve molluscs actually live all their lives laying on the side of the body. The clam’s half-shells are located on the right and the left (lateral) sides of the animal. In contrast, there is actually another unrelated group of shelled animals called brachiopods, which have top and bottom valves, because their half-shells are connected to the upper and the lower sides of the animal.

I'm tired, I'm not wearing glasses, I look at the screen and I thought Gordon Ramsey was teaching me how to cook ammonites...
Do you remember what he was saying?
@@pandemicphilly60I guess?
I just took my glasses off and you’re not wrong 🤣😂🤣😂 also forgive me for any missspellings
This was super fascinating and informative! Thank you!

It’s all very Interesting. I didn’t know ammonites existed in so many sizes, colors and shapes.

Thank you for keeping your day job so i can find out about these creatures!
Very informative video. Thank you for sharing!
Nice video, thank you. I love fossil collecting and have some sort of Nautilus embedded in a Septarian nodule, needs 2 people to lift it.
Really great video' so much information. I would love for more videos like this on other fossils
Very interesting, thank you.
Awesome video! Thank you so much for sharing!!
I appreciate tour information. Thank you.
Awesome info. Thanks for sharing.
NICE VIDEO..KEEP IT UP SIR
Thanks for the information I was just researching ammonites for a post I'm glad I found this informative video
Nicely done, good job!
Great video! thx for sharing!

Found a decent ammonite here in north texas, only one I’ve ever seen but I guess they’re out there 🙌
awesome video
Thank you for the info. 🙂
I found one I keep on my dresser ,found it about 22 years ago.I am uploading a video of it how old do you think it is ?

I wish ammonites were still around
Like a squid and a snail put together.
It's nice to know what these are.
How do you find the ammonite 👏
This is awesome
is a ammonite a nautilus?
They are different from each other, though there are physical similarities
@@fahoodie1852 ok
I am here because of Nilered! :D
I saw something like that but it was a different color its like a pearl ,and its moon snail
I have one that looks like the big one on the left . Mine is a little bit bigger though
Thank you :)
nautilus is the same as ammonite?
0:21
Isn't it a brachiopod?
I see South Carolina, i click
Good old Pliny the Elder at it again!
*Edited for spelling*
How are people so bored they just follow people around when we have this to learn?! Video killed the radio star.
i love it
How some fossils get pyritized?
This guy looks like Gordon Ramsay mixed with Bill’s Channel
Is a Goniatite an Ammonite?
No, but they are both ammonoids.
"Bivalve, a left and a right"
But why not "a top and a bottom"?
Doesn't really matter, I'm just curious because it's so bizarre

hi dzaddy
I am sy bsc student of geology .
Hindu worship it as Shaligram. it is found in Nepal Gandaki river but Shaligram looks more like a stone.
Oh how do you tell if there are male or female??? Anyone, please. Im going to be buying a big one soon💟
Omastar
Sorry but i disagree that ammonites were extinct.. i myself catch ones.
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing.
