In this area, we celebrate our amateur contributions to the paleontological sciences. Whether by volunteering their time (lab work, collections maintenance, organized field work), or through the donation of significant specimens to scientific institutions, amateurs have always played an important but unheralded part!

Studying the geology and realizing that things can move by natural forces (or by man!) is very helpful when trying to figure out what is going on and IDing fossils. I know listing the formations of your finds may be a bit tricky, but having some sort of idea of where they could have come from will help with IDs.

Clearly some nice fossils can be found, if you know exactly where to look, but there is a reason we don't see a lot of Puerto Rican fossils. Don Paleontology is a very scarce hobby and barely any locals here have any knowledge of fossils, and a lot of them still have the thought that fossils are only found in museums.

I am trying to figure out how to best store my fossils. I was thinking air-tight plastic containers with polyester padding and maybe silica packets for moisture. I was keeping them in storage in my classroom, but some of the fossils feel sticky. I thought that might be normal, but someone said it's a sign of moisture issues.
