Digging for fossils at Coon Creek


On Tuesday I went to Coon Creek. And I learned a lot about fossils. When we went outside we dug for fossils that where 70 million years old. The tour lady let us hold this weird type of rock. At first it looked like a crawdad. I immediately dropped it to hear that it was fossilized poop.
I learned how to clean a fossils. First you clean it with a toothpick then you spray it with water and then you let it dry and you put wax on it and let it get hard.
