      Even though you are a complete stranger I totally agree with you that I learned so much about this lake in this video from this man who is a great nature teacher. I have never met him but I hope that one day maybe I can meet him and shake his hand and tell him all the things that he taught me about nature. He probably has so many fans that he will not care about that moment but I will care and I will tell my grandchildren about that moment.

      Don’t seem like much to see at all in my opinion. Personally I wasn’t impressed at all w/ the shots I saw in the video. There was barely even any exotic trees or wildlife

      @@ThunderstoneWV It was the western side of salt lake where the lake was dried. I saw a small black stone in the white background. It is rare to see those black stone at that spot. I picked it up and it was bit heavy for its size. I did not know at that time but I was carelessly bounce it to the hard ground and made a strange metallic sound. At that time, I realized it is a special rock. Later, I have heard that many people collect space rocks in Antarctica the same way. It is a same situation.

    I learned many things from you in this video Mr Stone. You are my number one favorite nature teacher on the internet. You remind me of Bear Grylls or Coyote Peterson. I was wondering if you could let the brine shrimp eat your hand for us to watch for science.

      You need to turn that fossil in to a local wildlife preservation museum. It’s against the law to be poaching/taking fossils from protected national parks. What is your full name, county of residence, date of when you found the fossil, phone contact number, and address of residence if you don’t mind me asking? Also where was the exact location where the fossil was taken from.

    It’s so sad. In the early 2000’s it really was a private ocean. In the early 2010’s it was still amazing and swimmable in Bridget bay.
    Went a weekend ago, you can see three decades of past shorelines at Bridger. You’d have to go a mile and a half from parking before you’d fine deep waters.
    It’s still amazing and considered a happy place for what it’s worth. But def sad af.

      What’s the state, people don’t seem to understand what discover means it means he discovered it for that side of the world, the eastern world of the western world two worlds I discovering it for that world. It doesn’t mean other people hadn’t landed there before it doesn’t mean other people hadn’t lived there before it just means discovered it so that time for that world. It would be like if I went up to Alaska and discovered a settlement, well we know that there’s a settle we know that people have been there before but for our world today I discovered it because no one had been there in such a long time
