Hunterc123 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 I live in southern Louisiana, not the best place for any fossil hunting, but since I'm now on summer vacation, I can go around the state a bit and look for some fossils. I've heard Tunica Hills is a good place for Ice age fossils. Does anyone else have an idea of where to look in Louisiana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Welcome to the Forum. You can start your research from this list. Keep in mind, the info is very old, and may no longer be accurate. Sites may be gone, (built or grown over) no longer accessible, or on private/state/federal land. Good luck.

Hunterc123 Posted May 22, 2016 Author Share Posted May 22, 2016 Thank you, I've heard of a couple of these sites before, but its like you said... A lot of them are gone at this point. The climate of Louisiana isn't very good for preserving anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilDAWG Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Are you specifically interested in vertebrate fossils, or are invertebrates OK? Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunterc123 Posted May 25, 2016 Author Share Posted May 25, 2016 I'm interested in anything, but vertebrates would be nice. I know invertebrates such as mollusks,clams, etc. are common fossils here, but I'd rather not sit all day digging for just clams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
