The team here love sharks as anyone will know if they have been on one of our trips with Felicity. This is a cracking discovery! https://www.telegraph.co.uk/…/amateur-f ossil-hunter-finds-…/
We like it when something new has been discovered... https://www.facebook.com/398222836937728/ posts/1854155358011128/
Some of you may have met Greg and Flick. They both lead our fossil trips and can be seen in our shop. When they are not busy with fossils, they perform as Curios Aquatica raising awareness and funds for marine conservation, something all of us at Island Gems feel passionately about. Their latest fundraiser is at the #IsleofWight Ventnor Botanic Gardens where you can meet a #mermaid. https://www.facebook.com/events/812960438 894003/permalink/812960455560668/
This is very interesting. We have been finding lots of fossil crocodile remains in recent weeks .... https://www.facebook.com/475615579289426/ posts/878746182309695/
