Aujourd'hui : Tatou à six bandes, Paresseux à deux doigts, Grand tamanoir ou fourmilier : photos qui figurent dans mon album "Zoo de Vincennes" (Parc zoologique de Paris)
Megatherium americanum était un paresseux géant de la mégafaune ayant peuplé l’Amérique du Sud entre – 40 000 et – 10 000 ans. Les paresseux sont des xénarthres, groupe de mammifères placentaires connus dès la fin du Paléocène, il y a - 55 millions d’années. Ces derniers existent encore aujourd’hui sur les continents nord et sud-américains : ce sont les tatous, les paresseux et les fourmiliers.

Contrairement aux autres dunes, la dune fossile de Ghyvelde, appelée aussi la "Dune aux Pins" (superficie: 112 hectares; 5 km de long sur 600m de large) ne reçoit plus de sable ni de coquillages car elle est désormais située à trois kilomètres de la mer.
Vieille de 5000 ans, elle est parallèle à la côte, protégée des vents par la Dune Marchand et les Dunes du Perroquet.
Elle est, avec la Dune de Cabour en Belgique, le dernier cordon de dunes fossiles préservées des appétits humains, marquant l'ancien rivage avant le recul de la mer.
Un pâturage extensif avec des chevaux Haflinger a été mis en place, évitant la profilération d'espèces agressives en maintenant un milieu ras favorable à la flore et à certaines espèces d'oiseaux.

Unlike other dunes, the fossil dune of Ghyvelde doesn't receive any more sand or shells as it is now three kilometers away from the sea.
5000 years old, it is with the "Dune Cabour" in Belgium, the last cord of fossil dunes preserved from human appetites, marking the ancient shoreline before the decline of the sea.
Might this be a fossilized leaf along the banks of the Mississippi River and under the Five Arched Stone Bridge (1901) in Pakenham, Ontario, Canada?
To my eyes, it appears that it could be. There are a number of fossils to be found in and around that location if one looks carefully.

Jharia (Inde) - De nombreuses familles des villages situés à proximité des sites d’extraction du charbon étaient là, bien avant que les compagnies minières ne s’intéressent à cette énergie fossile et ne les expulsent manu militari. Sans autre autre forme de procès et sans indemnisations.
Depuis toujours, leur principale activité a été la récolte de l’anthracite, nom donné au charbon de terre considéré comme un minerai fossile à très haute valeur énergétique. Il suffisait de se baisser pour le ramasser. C’est toujours le cas, mais aujourd’hui, ce sont les engins mécaniques qui raflent l’essentiel du butin au nom du développement économique.
Alors ces mineurs devenus des illégaux chez eux, plus ou moins tolérés par les compagnies minières, continuent à glaner ce qu’ils peuvent pour survivre. Mais évoluer dans un tel environnement réduit singulièrement leur espérance de vie. Tous souffrent de maladies respiratoires qui à plus ou moins brève échéance leur seront fatales. Certains commencent à réclamer des indemnités compensatoires. Doléances restées lettres mortes jusqu’ici.
Full lungs!
Jharia (India) - Many families from small villages located near coal mining sites were there, long before mining companies took an interest in this fossil energy and expelled them manu militari. Without any other form of trial and without compensation.
Their main activity has always been the harvest of anthracite, the name given to coal considered to be a fossil ore with very high energy value. You just had to bend down to pick it up. This is still the case, but today, it is mechanical machines that take most of the loot in the name of economic development.
So these miners who have become illegals at home, more or less tolerated by mining companies, continue to glean what they can to survive. But living in such an environment significantly reduces their life expectancy. All of them suffer from respiratory illnesses which will sooner or later prove fatal to them. Some are starting to demand compensation. Complaints which have remained unheeded until now.

Radiolarians are unicellulars of diameter 0.1–0.2 mm that produce intricate mineral skeletons, typically with a central capsule dividing the cell into the inner and outer portions of endoplasm and ectoplasm.The elaborate mineral skeleton is usually made of silica. They are found as zooplankton throughout the ocean, and their skeletal remains make up a large part of the cover of the ocean floor as siliceous ooze. Due to their rapid turn-over of species, they represent an important diagnostic fossil found from the Cambrian onwards. (Source: Wikipedia)

This living fossile exists since the Carboniferous age - about more than 300 million years ago!
It looks here in springtime like a primeval ammonite shell or a like a recent snail shell :-)

Hidden in a snailhouse, if looked carefully on, in a dreamstate of mind and when the time is right, the traces after the dragons will reveal itself to the observer.... ... You just got to belive.. ;-)

ALL' INGRESSO DELLA FORESTA FOSSILE DI DUNAROBBA
La natura non smette mai di stupire: in Umbria in località Casaccia si trova una foresta che risale al Pliocene medio-superiore. È la Foresta Fossile di Dunarobba, portata alla luce tra il 1979 e il 1987. I 50 tronchi mummificati che la compongono, hanno permesso ai geologi di scoprire come fosse il clima e la vegetazione di quella zona milioni di anni fa.
Questa immagine è stata scattata nel 1986 mentre ci si dirigeva in vacanza in Calabria....è stata una sosta molto suggestiva, lontana dal turismo di massa. A quei tempi ricordo che nessuno conosceva la Foresta Fossile di Dunarobba.

AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE DUNAROBBA FOSSIL FOREST
Nature never ceases to amaze: in Umbria in Casaccia there is a forest that dates back to the middle-upper Pliocene. It is the Fossil Forest of Dunarobba, unearthed between 1979 and 1987. The 50 mummified trunks that compose it, have allowed geologists to discover what the climate and vegetation of that area was like millions of years ago.
This image was taken in 1986 while we were heading for a holiday in Calabria .... it was a very suggestive stop, far from mass tourism. In those days I remember that no one knew the Fossil Forest of Dunarobba.

Analogica, Pentax S1A ( 1963 ) priva di esposimetro, SMC Takumar 55 mm 1.8 F con 1 tubo di prolunga, Kodak color 200 asa, sviluppo con Tetenal. Ora vado al lavoro di notte, spero di commentare le vostre foto più tardi.
Grazie ad un caro amico geologo Salvo Failla, ho avuto l’occasione di fotografare dei reperti della sua collezione privata e la cosa che mi ha colpito di più è stata la sua profonda “passione” per il suo lavoro, le didascalie a seguito sono sue, poi voglio dedicare questi scatti ad un mio contatto “Valerio Lanci” che, come amministratore di “fotopedia” vuole creare un’enciclopedia fotografica nel web.
Buona visione!

a fossile tooth of the Mosasaur (Ichthyo saures), I bought it at a mineral fare! Thought is is special to have something so old!.
