This was such a fun hunt! I’m already dying to go back there.

[@WILDKYLE]

Brother we are going to find the fossils of our dreams here!

[@Arilex-j9u]

Wild crue rule ❤️

[@TheoKellison]

Dude that canine is insane!😱 thats just crazy man! Looks like just waaaay too much fun! Man do i miss Florida already🤣 ammonites just dont feel the same after hunting for shark teeth and Pleistocene bones🤣 hoping to see you again this fall my friend!😄

[@PaleoCris]

@@TheoKellison we’ll get you on spots like this if the conditions are right next time you’re here!

[@karenmurphy7066]

YES, YES, YES, GO BACK TO THE MASTADON SPOT on the creek! Awesome adventure for the three of you! Thanks for sharing!

[@sisD]

You have to go back!!! 😱 Such great fossils. Please take bug spray too! 🦋

[@storytimewithunclebill1998]

Horseflies must be savages out there. More awesome finds. Looks so exciting. Glad you made it back. Was fun to watch. Great video

[@americanrebel413]

This was awesome man!

[@valiantwarrior4517]

Horse flies don’t mess around. Deer flies are a lot smaller, but bite even harder. Utah has a waaay different climate than Florida, but we have both here.

[@TreasureHuntingNana]

OK so the snakes and spiders would stop me from being able to hunt here.... you guys are braveer than I LOL

[@gracewashburn8276]

Oh wow Kyle you guys found some really awesome Bones and teeth nice discoveries nice

[@mirkatu3249]

Love watching you and PaleoCris and Bri together. Please go back to that spot, I am so excited to see what else you find there! :-)

[@Michael-cf9lf]

You guys need to return there, its amazing to know that you guys are the first to touch that in millions of yrs.

[@Jerry-sy8rd]

Hi Kyle! Great vid!…as “previewed” on the tower last week. What an amazing bit a luck getting to meet up! That Whooper has apparently been gettin an internet following among those who know. Glad we got to see it. Keep up the explorations….And of course your musical muse!)… know you will…there’s no better time than NOW🙂. Give my best to PC and B. I follow them as well. Looking forward to your next adventure. J

[@pennymackenzie7637]

Went out from Brookville on the Peace R. kayaking Tues. and Wed. Found neat stuff including a dire wolf canine and horse astragalus. Also enjoyed Kyle's recent live concert and have now added his music to my collection.

[@ghostravenXX]

So many pieces to carve . Very cool finds guys and gal . Definitely need to delve into that spot hard . Could very well be larger pieces down a bit . Happy hunting

[@kevindurey9482]

That’s so awesome the things that you find I work so much now I don’t have to go out and bone dig much anymore I’ve found a great abundance of mammoth and big sharks teeth north of wachulla many years ago so since I can’t get out much I always enjoy the videos keep them coming your great!! Thanks

[@TheoKellison]

Duuuuude whaaaaat!? This was just crazy!😳 shells, shark teeth, mammoth bone and mastodon teeth, and a dang dire wolf canine?! What a day dude! Man am i already missing Florida way too much🤣 the fall seems sooooo far away after watching this one🤣 epic video and epic hunt my friend! Missin you guys already; the wild/paleo crew is just way too much fun to hang out with😁

[@WILDKYLE]

Florida misses you my friend! We can't wait to hang out with you again! ❤️

[@starman9458]

I live up here in Kentucky and we have karst depressions known as blue holes that form an underground spring and there is one in a forest I've been to and filmed it. I call it the "Blue Pond" because there is a cave nearby.

[@YsabetJustYsabet]

OMG I remember horseflies. I think they don't just bite, they take CHUNKS out of you. I remember hearing about some hiker back while I lived in Pensacola who'd been driven so crazy by the horseflies that he ran off a bluff and broke a lot of bones; some other hikers found him and got him to medical help, but there you go: killer horseflies. They're deadly; they have attitude. Put some damp baking-soda on that bite, it'll help. The things y'all found were BONKERS. Seriously-- ivory, mastodon teeth, all that freaking bone, and the wolf tooth (I would have to kiss that wolf tooth) and all those horse teeth! This is a wonderful, wonderful spot! I noticed the lack of trash, too-- it's like you found a place that skipped the past century entirely. PLEASE come back to this spot! Thanks, and watch out for Swamp Children.

[@amandabecker5101]

This shows some real dedication!

Yes Kyle, Cris and Bri in one video 👍🏻 Awesome trip ⛏️ You found some really wild stuff 🤠 Greetings from Germany ✌🏼🇩🇪

Everything found is amazing. It's hard to say who got my favorite find. I have to watch Chris's video. Stay beautiful. ✌❤😃🙏

I think the best find of the day was Cris's wolf canine! 🙃

[@maryoneill5070]

@@WILDKYLE I agree. Your video was great though. Will his compare? LOL!

[@pennymackenzie7637]

Went camping with a friend for 2 nights at the Peace River at Brookville- many avid hunters go out from there. Went out in Kayaks in wind gusts of 25 mph.. but so fun. River was very low, so we had to walk our yaks in places. About 2.5 miles upstream we had some very neat finds, one being a dire wolf canine. Also, enjoyed your recent music video, Kyle, and have it in my collection now.

[@mellomelo119]

Oh yes, please , and please do survive. I love these adventures with you guys. Not one program on TV comes close to this ! Lots of love to ya all.

[@lisawilson4551]

Ok guys when are we going back here with you again, what an amazing day 😀👍❤️❤️

[@JaneEllenMusic]

Late to the party, but this was SO worth the wait!!! I wouldn't have been able to do anything but keep fishing those bits of bone and enamel out and cramming them into my pockets - I can't believe how many there were! And then -- MASTODON!! And THEN -- DIRE WOLF??? Maybe??? Awesome explore, and mega congrats you guys!!

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks for watching Jane! This was one of our most fun adventures yet that's for sure! Can't wait to go back and share more finds with all of you! ☺️

[@TiffYG2133]

7:24 OMG there was another spider right below where you grabbed the shark tooth, I saw it move.....AHHH! 😱

Hi Kyle, jake said check out your KZbin channel and your music. So I've found your album but can't listen to it properly till headphones are charged as its half past midnight here but loving your KZbin channel, great to see the finds. Love the enthusiasm and the humour. So I'm a new fan. Looking forward to the next one.

[@WILDKYLE]

Hey Joe! Thank you for taking the time to check out my channel and my music. I appreciate that a lot! ☺️

Of COURSE we want you to go back to that location! I love how your enthusiasm never wanes, no matter how many day-maker fossils you find. Thanks for another great adventure! I'm off to SW Arizona to go mineral hunting and - if I'm lucky - go to Puerto Penasco while I'm at it. They have a seashell museum there! Videos to follow.

[@indiangame1]

I don't even know how or why I started watching these kind of videos but I'm soooo happy that I did. I love them! I know nothing about fossils etc but I'm learning new things everyday thanks to you guys. Cheers from Australia mate and thank you 😁

[@RockHoundingAdventures]

Bro I loved this adventure of y’all’s, watching this video makes me want to hope in that car and head your direction lol. May have to one week in the future. Y’all were finding so many fossils 🤯. Those big mastodon bones and teeth were amazing, I’m not sure I could leave lol. Have y’all ever thought about camping while on a good hunt?😜. All look do that wolf 🐺 tooth was crazy cool. Thank you for sharing this amazing adventure. I enjoyed every second of it.

@@janvafa9959 Lol I have this running joke with Kyle because at 42, I am way too old for Chris and I think Bri is awesome but, Chris's intelligence and smouldering eyes have made me swoon since I started watching a couple of years ago. It's all in fun and with an understood (I believe) respect. I don't outright flirt with Chris, just as a joke to Kyle.😁

[@cynzcollectablez8546]

This was an awesome video with lots of awesome bones and everything. That canine tooth was amazing. Honestly I feel like this spot is definitely a good one to go back to. Random idea which would require a lot of effort and time with a different media as well. You could always do lives on TikTok especially in this area and do like little scoop bags for your viewers where they pay for a scoop and also pay shipping. Nice way to be able to share the awesome goodies and also make some money to help with all your KZbin time and expenses I know I would probably pay for a scoop since I would live the experience to dig in a bag of goodies for fossilized items!!!!!

[@dlvb7890]

Another great video!!! Thanks!!

[@rockreader4298]

Kyle, Wouldn't it help spot the obstacles in the river, to fly a drone over it first? In the future perhaps, so you could put the canoe in closer to where the fossils start? Just a thought. Here in California there seems to basically be no house flies(good), but an unusual amount of horse flies (not so good). What's up with that? : l On a lighter note, Kyle, You were rockin' that straw cowboy hat, Chris was rockin' the no shirt look (only a glimpse?) Hey! Bree was rockin' her usual alluring confidence. : ) Of course the fossils were rockin' their age.

[@WILDKYLE]

Unfortunately there's no other launch points for this location so we gotta go through the crazy log jams haha! Thanks for watching for the compliments my friend! ☺️

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks so much man I can't wait to do more of those!

[@Dynotop1a]

Super cool spot for sure! That little rodent jaw almost halfway through the vid looks just like one I showed Paleocris on Instagram the other day! Probably the species Sylvilagus webbi which is the ancestor of the modern swamp rabbit. He graciously helped me ID a different fossil I found at the same site, since I don’t have much experience and wasn’t quite sure of the difference between mammal and bird bone structure outside of reading about it. You guys are awesome and I’d love to look for fossils with you someday!

[@devinseagle1503]

have you ever considered a polarized lens cap to remove the reflections on top of the water? You could also just wear polarized lenses to see better through the water from above.

[@LogicBeforeAuthorityOFFICIAL]

I want to purchase some of your petrified findings. Please tell me how to do it. There is nothing wrong with you offering people the ability to purchase what you find. So don't get it twisted like you're doing something wrong because most of us are not willing to go way through the swamps to find these things yet we want to see and have some of these things. Maybe an eBay page? All of what you're showing would be very easy to ship and likely very profitable. Daniel

Something I've always been curious about: do y'all have leeches and bloodsuckers or anything similar where you go fossil hunting? I'm from Maine, and we have them everywhere in our waters!

[@WILDKYLE]

Oh yeahhh we have seen some BIG leeches in these places 😂 They are about the only thing that freaks me out as much as ticks!

[@MaineMythica]

@@WILDKYLE OOh dannng! Are the waters infested with them?? Sometimes here you can see them swimming when they're not hiding under rocks! Every time you say it's crystal clear water, I always look to see if I can see any! I'm a zoology major but Leeches and ticks are the two things I HATE!! lol I see a lot of ticks on Moose when I work at tagging stations! And I usually avoid stepping in shallow waters that I know contain leeches unless I have some mud boots or waders on!
