Happy National Fossil Day! Today, Science Educator Seth is joined by Preparator Tabatha as the two talk about the importance of preparing fossils and what it means to the field of paleontology. There's also a special guest appearance from a REAL Arctodus Simus skull, found in The Mammoth Site's Bonebed!

The Mammoth Site is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the mission of preservation, research, and interpretation of the Late Ice Age record found at our site in Hot Springs, South Dakota. We are the world's largest mammoth research facility and one of the top fossil interpretive sites in North America. Over 60 mammoths (56 Columbian, 4 woolly) have been unearthed, along with at least 87 other Late Ice Age animals.
