Receding Floodwaters Exposed The Ancient Ocean Floor on this Florida River - Fossils EVERYWHERE!

[@beachcomber4141]

Paleo Chris and Wild Kyle are two of my favorite fossil and artifact channels that I watch. It is always very cool when they get together. Don't stop! More adventures please.

[@WILDKYLE]

We appreciate that! Definitely many more to come!

[@maryzefo3801]

Me too 😊

[@katrinkabuttlin]

I genuinely love y’all’s friendship - I’ve been watching you both since Chris had longer hair than you, and you both are just so consistently positive and goofy together. Thank you BOTH for years of enjoyment 💕

That was a common garter snake at 18:00 , and they actually make pretty good pets. They are great for beginners because they are active during the day and stay relatively small in comparison to other snake species in the hobby.

[@WILDKYLE]

It was such a pretty little snake!

[@RickSmith-kp3sy]

I'm gonna disagree with it's just Felix. I believe that's an Eastern Ribbon Snake, Thamnophis saurita, not a Common Garter. And never take a wild snake home for a pet. They will never be a pet, I can almost guarantee it. Treat em like an ugly rock and leaverite there.

[@SonOfVulkan]

Definitely a Garter, would not recommend as pets, way to flighty, keep corn and rat snakes if you are looking for pets!!! But don't take them from the wild that sucks Edit: could be a ribbon snake

[@_Its.Just.Felix_]

@RickSmith-kp3sy they look identical unless we get a good look at the head and since we didn't there's no way to know for sure

[@_Its.Just.Felix_]

@SonOfVulkan they're good for beginners cuz their needs are much easier then some other snake species and I've not had an issue with flighty garters

[@dartmart9263]

Yes! Get some wetsuits on tomorrow and look for some mammoth/mastodon goodies! What an awesome team, with such an excellent overlap of knowledge and skills. Invite Brie and Natalie as well. Make a picnic on a boat event out of it!

[@paulwells782]

Thanks!

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks so much Paul!

[@paulwells782]

@ My pleasure, a small price to pay for an evening of entertainment. Appreciate you!

[@justjoy4239]

I had a great time! Thanks for taking me along!

[@nightberg1971]

I'm currently half-way through, and I am really enjoying this one. Would give my eye-teeth to take a plunge in that river - no air-con in this dorm I live in (at 8:45 pm it's still hovering around the 30-32 C / 85-90 F region). Gotta admit, it kinda fools my mind that I'm cooler than I am, just watching you fellas searching along the river bank. Keep up the excellent vids lads - one request ... if at all possible, bring your ladies with you next time - it's really fun seeing the dynamic friendship you all have, the banter, and the genuine surprise with the discoveries. Thanks for the stroll and adventure (and the mind-cheating cooler feeling)! Cheers, from Sydney Australia!!! 👍🇦🇺🦘🐨

[@gjerde56]

So good to see you both having fun and exploring together!

[@WILDKYLE]

We had such a good time!

[@kimgower1347]

Can't wait for more videos from this area. Once again thanks for hauling us all along. Happy Holidays to you, Chris, Bri, and Natalie! Y'all have brought me much joy. Looking forward to our next adventure.

[@maryoneill5070]

I had a great time watching. It’s always fun when the boys are together. ☮️

[@WILDKYLE]

Thank you Mary! ❤️

[@kirsiselei8703]

[@nanak2025]

I really enjoy your friendship, it's easy and comfortable, just take you as you are and have fun exploring. That's a very rare thing and such a blessing. You both are very lucky and we all enjoy learning so much from all your adventures and finds! Thanks Guys!

[@WILDKYLE]

We are very lucky 😊 Cris and I have been best friends for around 13 years now. Since long before we started KZbin channels!

[@sharbean]

Great to see another video!

[@justjoy4239]

Love a Wild Kyle and Chris adventure!

[@WILDKYLE]

[@marybeth6272]

Awesome!!💚

[@morganrowe2330]

Really digging to boat adventures! It’s interesting the preservation of the echinoids. Thanks for the video! Hope you find some sharks teeth when you go back.

[@Julianne955]

I'm finally going to Florida! I'll be waving to you two as we pass through Gainesville! I absolutely love when you and Cris are together. Has it been 4 maybe 5 years since I found you two? Have a wonderful week out there wherever you two may be. Wishing you both a very Merry Christmas! Oh, I'm heading to Florida because we're going to be Grandparents for the first time!

[@WILDKYLE]

It's definitely been about that long! We started our channels in 2018. Time really flies! Merry Christmas to y'all too! Have a great trip!

[@larsenkim1]

thnxs kyle and chris .new camera kyle? love that it was a nice long video again:} bug hug!

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks for watching Kim! I did get a new phone that I've been filming with and the footage has been looking great from it!

[@Columbina697]

Beautiful finds, love your videos and your guys are my favorite KZbinrs 😊

[@WILDKYLE]

Thank you so much! ❤️

[@makaylanewell3821]

Always enjoy seeing your videos, Kyle! I have been watching you and Chris since the beginning. One day, I plan on going down there and exploring! (Hopefully finding some amazing fossils). Keep it up!

[@laurieowen8696]

Such incredible finds 👏

[@WILDKYLE]

Thank you Laurie! 🙏

[@sheenamoore3938]

So enjoy seeing you two together. Looking forward to seeing you both out there again.

[@mikepetrucha2774]

Boys day out! The echinoids were really cool looking. Did you ever find out what species they were?

[@likeakite]

I loved those springs

[@graemero5532]

Thanks for another great video WildKyle & PaleoChris 😁

[@GREEKEXPLORERS]

Amazing video!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@cheltinker7709]

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Echinoids and sand dollars, two of my favorite fossils! They're beautiful!!!🎄❤️

[@WILDKYLE]

We get some really nice ones here! Can't wait to go back when the water gets a bit lower!

[@cynthiatyler1606]

My favorite ribbon snake .

[@WILDKYLE]

Such a beautiful little snake!

[@judymarkel8029]

that was fun

[@ChristineScott-s6h]

What do you do with all your finds from your trips? I enjoy watching your videos!

[@WILDKYLE]

We usually only keep the best of the best! But planning to do some fossil shows soon to help get rid of extras!

[@laurafolsom2048]

Are you on the Suwannee? I remember all the clear springs along the River. This Florida girl misses it! Used to live in Chiefland.

[@beaverc2884]

11:39 those are more like sand pennies. 😊

[@lisak5133]

Holy moly I would absolutely die if I found so many fossils! Incredible!

[@lindaleehulsey3167]

👀 on the 🌞 side. Shadowy shade dark hides things. My feeling better.

[@chrisbgifford7387]

Well that was fun!

[@mikemorgan4412]

Guys those little sand dollars are actually sand dimes. 🧐

[@WILDKYLE]

Yes! Hahaha

[@maryoneill5070]

8:45 up close the giant rock looks like an alligator head.

[@justjoy4239]

Sweet garter snake, so many scallops!

[@toki-ko]

aw this looks fun

[@Canned_beef]

This is where your new book will come in handy

[@WILDKYLE]

[@lindaleehulsey3167]

[@CedarStoneCreations]

All of the cool marine stuff down there is so foreign being so far from an ocean haha, thanks for sharing!

[@tuckerhuff692]

Kyle how long do you keep your hats?

[@WILDKYLE]

Usually until they completely fall apart 😂

[@paulwells782]

49 seconds ago! Caught ya!

[@WILDKYLE]

Yes!

[@harmeowniehl9376]

Kyle's demonstration of erosion is top notch.

[@WILDKYLE]

Thank you very much 😂😂😂

[@harmeowniehl9376]

@WILDKYLE you are quite welcome! Y'all are hilarious 😂

[@DownriverRocks]

I guess I can take a break from alien/drone watching to see what’s up with my favorites. 😂😂❤

[@WILDKYLE]

Hahahahaa yes not a bad idea at all 😂

[@lynnapplefield553]

You guys are happy w finding noth’n.. WOW! Hiw gapoy Woukd you be at a shell beach? !

[@WILDKYLE]

I don't remember finding nothing in this video. 😂

[@sherrie545]

Never a dull moment along with you two! Always something new to find and see. Thanks!

[@shandykeehn4574]

My heart when that spider came out 😮 I love what yall do and I always want to try it out but I would have died and dripped everything in my hand . Reallly need to get over my fear of bugs 😂

[@Objective-Observer]

That is just so cool, that a couple of paleontologists jump in a boat to go shopping for fossils... then you actually trolled for fossils! Only in the south.

[@shandykeehn4574]

How do you all clean the stuff off of the noids?

[@WILDKYLE]

Very carefully with some vinegar usually! Just gotta be super careful because it will eat at them.

[@DonnaAllen-s9r]

❤❤❤❤

[@WILDKYLE]

😊❤️

[@TurtleyCrzE3ASW]

Woohoo

[@WILDKYLE]

😀😀😉

[@GabrielSeigel]

Thank You Sir Kyle for the adventure's and the Knowledge!!! I wish you and your family and friends have a Very Wonderful Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year... 🙏 I always trip out when I watch your videos... You absolutely look like my cousin Jacob and the worst thing is you sound exactly like him as well... Are maybe vice versa... Identical Twins if I have ever seen them... 🙏🌲✌️🌜🌝🌚🌛

[@melissalease5476]

I’m adding a place to y’all’s bucket list: Alaska for fossil hunting!!!😊😊😊

[@gusc2403]

Dog track, front then the smaller one is the rear print inside if the front print

[@WILDKYLE]

Yeah it looked hilarious to us for some reason haha!

[@SandyButler-h5n]

Don't eat them Kyle! 😂🤣😅

[@njanderson4342]

Collect clay for pottery.

[@sadielevens1144]

😮

[@Trading_cards_and_more]

Kyle had to put the finger in 😂

[@WILDKYLE]

OMG 😂

[@benitagrattan193]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@DebbieM1140]

❤

[@dzfossil1]

Hey Kyle, love all your videos. How does someone get it touch with you? I live in Birmingham and wanted to invite you to see my home museum sometime.

[@justjoy4239]

I use to say they were Poseidon pennies the small sand dollars…😁

[@WILDKYLE]

Hahaha that is a perfect name for them!

[@ernestryder1129]

Kyle what river and county is that?

[@slvihelenevorrenaasand7835]

It’s a seabiscuit, in family with the sanddollar

[@LizsCleopatra]

I have a hard time watching your videos, Kyle. lol.. I’m heavily into Gemology and I struggle to keep my eyes on the fossils like a good girl (follower) that I should be, rather than the rocks around them.. I keep straying. Such dilemmas! I’m getting better at it though I promise. 😄

[@mirkatu3249]

That was a Garter snake and they're harmless. Unless provoked, then they morph into a chupacabra and will eat your face off. jkjk. :-)

[@WILDKYLE]

Now that would be a sight to see 😂😂😂

[@Hydrart]

Sand dimes!

[@Dopa-MiningFam]

Y’all joked about Eocene pearls and that got me to wondering if you’ve ever found pearl fossils?

[@WILDKYLE]

We never have! I'm assuming it would be possible, but I'm sure VERY rare!

[@Dopa-MiningFam]

I live in middle Georgia and have found many sharks teeth and other marine fossils - I do have one item I question may be an ancient pearl but don’t know where to go to have it analyzed

[@sheilaholden8467]

I think when you watch this video back you'll see some sand dollars you missed.

[@WILDKYLE]

I saw a LOT while editing haha

[@zakirac55]

The heavy parts have already sunk. Get out your snorkels boys.

[@sparxnme22]

Why aren't you paning for gold in that clay, here in Australia that would be prime stuff right there

[@WILDKYLE]

We don't get gold here unfortunately!

[@sparxnme22]

​@@WILDKYLEreally? damn that looked so choice 🤙

[@Tammie-Burns1961]

Please keep your eyes open for gators. 🐊 if you go into that dark tea color water.

[@cynthiahappel3697]

Raccoon tracts. I think.

[@WILDKYLE]

Definitely a lot of those around!

[@deirdreshaw2761]

Raccoon tracks?

[@mayhmmaydn]

Raccoons n otters

[@TerriAnnNiemeier-dy3no]

How many of your fossil teeth contain a stem cell ? Hi New hair cut, kiddo ?

[@chrissettles4127]

Great video. Terrific people.
