    I noticed recently someone was looking to purchase some Tooth , and you explained you would rather give them some than sell it . On reading that you instantly won my respect mate and that is a credit to you bigtime. and I could sense your respect for these incredible Artefacts. I am exactly the same as you . I realise there are people who really want to own something so special but can not access them as we can , and can totally understand that , but in the same breath how the hell can you put a price on some thing so naturally beautiful but coupled with such mystery and history , it almost feels disrespectful to the majestic animals . I have given away many pieces from my collection to close friends and family once I have multiples of the same find . So it pains me to see people who have no passion for the subject treating such incredible historical material as a commodity simply to make a fast buck .To me my finds seem priceless. So big respect to you mate .

      Thanks mate , i totally agree with what you are saying I don't want to profit from nature , this stuff is out there just waiting to be discovered for free . I do have the upmost respect for these fossils and just how incredibly old they are . The last piece I found in the video I would never sell and I will keep in my collection that is the best fragment I have found so far, it is basically a connection through time to that mammoth which once roamed those lands .

    That partial whale vertebra is a really cool chunk of Bone mate ,well found !. That would definitely go onto a fossil Wishlist of mine. Have you tried researching anymore more like what whale it may have came from , .likely age estimation do you think it came up from where it was in situ or rolled in from much further out ?. Would be bloody interesting to know more if you find out . Just imagine the journeys that must of been on , what with the vast distances their migration can take , fascinating . Thank you for sharing that Beast

      I think the vert may have come out of the red crag deposit , I learnt this from Louie Chidwick who commented on a different video, he said this deposit dates between 3 to 1 million years old , it can contain Pleistocene seabed fossils . The shape of that vert would also be easily rolled by the sea so could have come out of the crag further out from the beach and rolled I guess ,that’s the largest piece of bone I have seen on that beach so far . I am just speculating though Ralph , you probably know a lot more about this than I do , good luck on your next hunt 👍

    The drone shots are stunning 😃
    5:40 I also would say that this is a big whale vertebra 👍🏻Wow! 👍🏻 But how old could it be?
    These teeth could belong to mammoths (woolly mammoth). But I'm also thinking about forest elelphant (Palaeoloxodon antiquus). Because the enamel plates are relativey thick and have a relatively big gap of each other. And the humps are more pronounced (14:08). So not sure if they are mammoth or some sort of elephant...
    Anyway, great fossils and beautiful drone shots my friend ⛏️😉 Stay safe!

    I use to go fossil hunting many many years ago, when I was a kid I use to go to the quarry that Sir David Attenborough 1st got the bug of the world we live in..
    I have not been out looking for fossil from then. I would love to start looking again, so were is the best place to go in Yorkshire?

    Whale vertebra. Probably Pliocene in age and originally came from one of the crags. The mammoth teeth appear to have relatively wide spaces between the enamel lamellae which suggests an early mammoth species like Mammuthus meridional is or similar. May be hard to say definitively as not very complete.
