A mother and her 13-year-old stepdaughter found a prehistoric fossil while exploring the river
A Prince George mother and stepdaughter were exploring the Nechako River just outside of Miworth when they found a prehistoric fossil, last week.
“Usually when it's a nice day, we want to get out for a little bit and she's really big into finding agates, so we decided to just take the opportunity to do it,” explained Cook, adding that the river was quite low that day so they were able to explore some areas they normally don’t get to see. Cook has since done some research and spoken with museums in Victoria and Tumbler Ridge, and the feedback she’s been given has been the same, that while megalodons were never in the area the tooth most likely caught a ride on a glacier before ending up buried in the Nechako.
“I know that Megalodon teeth from what I've been reading on the internet can be quite common in some places. But to find one here is incredibly rare.”
