As the ice age ended, the now fields of Vermont were covered by a massive inland ocean. When one Beluga whale got caught in the grassy marshes, she was left behind as her pod swam away. Left to discovered in a farmer’s field in 1849.
What a great introduction to the fossil record, archaeology, the Ice Age, or many other topics. I will be sharing this with my middle school science teachers to see who needs it for their classroom use for sure.
