Fossil Parks NPS Paleontology Program T he principal mission of the National Park Service is the preservation and protection of its natural and historic resources in a manner and by means that will leave them unimpaired for future generations. The preservation of fossils and the natural geologic processes are included in this mission. Indeed, the diversity of the fossil record in the National Park System is great. Petrified leaves, wood, pollen, shells, bones, teeth, eggshells, tracks, borrows, and coprolites have been found in more than 145 National Park System units. Collectively, these fossils provide a comprehensive history of life in the areas that are now national parks from the Precambrian stromatolites in Glacier National Park to mammal bones from the Ice Age throughout the Alaskan parks.

63. Paleontology Careers Outside reading in paleontology and visiting museums with fossil displays is helpful for building up knowledge of fossils themselves. http://www.priweb.org/ed/lol/careers.html

I Want To Be A Paleontologist ! Advice for Students and Parents Paleontological Research Institution Ithaca, NY There is no luckier person than the person who can make their passion their career. Most professional paleontologists are just such lucky people. They are people consumed with a passion to understand the history of life on earth. Paleontology is fun, thrilling, and fascinating, but it is also hard work. It is not "easier" than the more traditional "core" science disciplines of physics, chemistry, biology, or geology. In many ways, paleontology is more difficult than any other science because to be a good paleontologist you must know a great deal about all of these fields. Paleontology is among the broadest of sciences. What is paleontology? What background do I need in high school? The best starting point is a college preparatory program with as many science and math courses as possible. Outside reading in paleontology and visiting museums with fossil displays is helpful for building up knowledge of fossils themselves. No matter how interested or knowledgeable a student is in paleontology, however, good overall grades in high school are almost always required for admission to a good college or university, which is a necessary prerequisite for a career in paleontology. What background do I need in college?

It is unfortunate, but true, that collecting fossils is becoming difficult from the legal standpoint. Although it is not impossible, collecting on public lands is difficult, and sometimes legally dangerous. Know the law. The collecting of vertebrate fossils is very tightly regulated. The Fossil Hunter . Mike Perona. A great place to visit if you collect fossils or want to. You'll find a list of fossil collecting locations throughout the United States and Canada, safety tips for collecting, and a list of the laws, rules, and regulations that you must understand if you want to collect legally. Collecting Fossils in California . A wonderful and extensive site on collecting fossils in California. The main feature of this resource is the list of sites and information on how to get to each. The sites are arranged by the type of fossil you are looking for, i.e. trilobites, shark teeth, and so forth.

Paleontology and Geology of Missouri Barry Sutton (standing) and Dr. Norm King I-170 Pennsylvanian exposure This site is a Paleontological research project based in St. Louis, Missouri, devoted to the study of the geological formations in Missouri. Primary focus is the study of the geological formations in the St. Louis area. The fossils are grouped by formation: Pennsylvanian Fossils of Missouri I-170 Pennsylvanian Exposure in St. Louis The I-170 Pennsylvanian Exposure in St. Louis, Missouri This link takes you to a discussion by Dr. Norman R. King, Professor of Geology at the University of Southern Indiana, about the rocks exposed at the I-170 highway cut. Dr. King describes the rock units and correlates them with rock units elsewhere in the Midcontinent region. He interprets their environments of deposition, and also places them in the context of larger-scale geological processes taking place in the Midcontinent region and around the globe during the Pennsylvanian Period.

What is paleontology? How does paleontology differ from anthropology and archaeology? What are the practical uses of paleontology? How do paleontologists know how old their fossils are? ... Where are some other online sources for paleontology? Q: What is paleontology? A: Paleontology is the study of fossils. A fossil is defined as any trace of a past life form. Thus, although wood, bones, and shells are the most common fossils, under certain conditions soft tissues, tracks and trails, and even coprolites (fossil feces) may be preserved as fossils. Although most of the fossils that paleontologists study are several thousands to several billions of years old, there is no absolute minimum age for a biological structure to be a fossil. Paleontologists study these fossils and attempt to use them to reconstruct the history of the Earth and the life on it. Some study the ecology of the past; others work on the evolution of fossil taxa. Click here to find out more about paleontology.

If the dinosaur or paleontology term you are looking for is not in the dictionary, please e-mail us INDEX FOSSILS Index fossils are commonly found, widely distributed fossils that are limited in time span. They help in dating other fossils found in the same sedimentary layer. For example, if you find a fossil from an unknown era near a fossil from a known time, you can assume that the two species were from about the same time. Examples of index fossils include: Ammonites were common during the Mesozoic Era (245 to 65 mya), They were not found after the Cretaceous period, as they went extinct during the K-T extinction (65 mya). Brachiopods (mollusk-like marine animals) appeared during the Cambrian (540 to 500 mya); some examples still survive.
