You Have to Try Finding These on the Beach! 😱 #animals #shorts #fossils

You have to see this! The cliffs of the Nye Mudstone on the central Oregon coast are a treasure trove of fossilized scallops, some dating back 15-20 million years to the early Miocene epoch. These fossils, often from species like *Chesapecten mathewsonii*, are incredibly well-preserved in the fine-grained sediment.
They tell the story of a time when this area was submerged beneath warm, shallow seas teeming with marine life. As the cliffs erode, these ancient scallops fall free, offering a tangible connection to Oregon's fascinating prehistoric past. #animals #nature #fosslis
