where can find fossilized dolfin given birth to young?

I saw that picture. She had the babies inside her. I can't remember if it was an ichthyosaur or a mesosaur

Fossils have been found in the Rocky Mountains, Montana, Utah, Wyoming and Colorado in the USA. To learn more we look at the time Diplodcus' lived.\n\nDuring the late Jurassic Period most of the continents were joined together until the Atlantic Ocean began to form and the Americas split from Africa. \n\n          The climate of the Jurassic was thought to be mild at perhaps 15 degrees Fahrenheit which is warmer than those of today.  Also, there were huge dinosaurs dominating the land but large marine reptiles ruled the seas.  The plant life of the Jurassic was dominated by cycads, but there were also many conifers, ginkgoes, horsetails, and ferns.

Many stores carry them, for example the Nature Company has a fine selection (if it is indeed still in business).  Stores that carry rock and mineral specimens may carry fossils, and some museums (especially natural history) may have them in the gift shops.  (I would try museum gift shops first, try calling museum shops in your area and asking.)  You can also try Ebay, (but it's usually best to purchase your fossils in person, since you can see your specimen.)  If you do choose to try Ebay, you can get to fossils by choosing "collectibles," "rocks, fossils, and minerals," and the subcategory "fossils."  Be careful that you're not purchasing "authentic replicas" though, those are just fancy words for "fake."  \n\nIf you are asking about purchasing the more rare and expensive pieces, I purchase mine at rock and gem shows, try seeing if there are any in your area.

If your talking about King of Prussia, Pa, you should google it and see.  You can go to the local baby store and ask too.

Try going to the Morman Church. They have birth records going back hundreds of years.

The New South Wales Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages has a web site with a search function.\n\nThat said they only have info online for:\n\nBirths between 1788 to 1905\nDeaths 30 years ago or more\nMarriages 50 years ago or more\n\nI've linked to two pages on the site that will help

did you try searching stuff like "Jurassic mammal, South America, Popeye"? I bet u could find some good stuff that way.

I did a search in Google Scholar and came up with some articles to start with.  I posted the URL of the search results below, hopefully that will work, otherwise, go to http://scholar.google.com/ and search using "environment of the Cretaceous Wealden sedementation.  If you have access to a nearby library they may have the publications that contain the articles, or, you could ask them about there interlibrary loan department.\n\nI suggest starting with these articles and looking at the article references to find some relevant books and/or more articles.  Good Luck!

Fossils (from Latin fossus, literally "having been dug up") are the mineralized or otherwise preserved remains or traces (such as footprints) of animals, plants, and other organisms. The totality of fossils and their placement in fossiliferous (fossil-containing) rock formations and sedimentary layers (strata) is known as the fossil record. The study of fossils is called paleontology.\n\nFossilization is actually a rare occurrence because most components of formerly-living things tend to decompose relatively quickly following death. In order for an organism to be fossilized, the remains normally need to be covered by sediment as soon as possible. However there are exceptions to this, such as if an organism becomes petrified or comes to rest in an anoxic (oxygen-free) environment such as at the bottom of a lake. There are several different types of fossils and fossilization processes.\n\nFossils usually consist of traces of the remains of the organism itself. However, fossils may also consist of the marks left behind by the organism while it was alive, such as the footprint or feces of a dinosaur or reptile. These types of fossil are called trace fossils, as opposed to body fossils. Finally, past life leaves some evidences that cannot be seen but can be detected in the form of chemical signals; these are known as chemical fossils (for lack of a better term).\n\n\nThe oldest known structured fossils are most likely stromatolites. Now understood to be formed by the entrapment of minerals by mucous-like sheets of cyanobacteria, the oldest of these formations dates from 3.5 billion years ago. Even older deposits (3.8 billion years old) of heavy carbon that are indicative of even earlier life are currently proposed as the remains of the earliest known life on Earth.\n\nRarity of fossils\n\nBecause fossilization requires the relatively quick preservation of bodily remains, fossils are relatively rare. Due to the combined effect of taphonomic processes and simple mathematical chance, fossilization tends to favor organisms with hard body parts, those that were widespread, and those that lived for a long time. On the other hand, it is very unusual to find fossils of small, soft bodied, geographically restricted and geologically ephemeral organisms, because of their relative rarity and low likelihood of preservation.\n[edit]\n\nPermineralization\nA permineralized trilobite, Asaphus kowalewskii\nEnlarge\nA permineralized trilobite, Asaphus kowalewskii\n\nPermineralization consists of organic remains being to some degree impregnated by minerals derived from the surrounding sediments or waters. For permineralization to occur, the organism must become covered by sediment soon after death or soon after the initial decaying process. The degree to which the remains are decayed when covered determines the later details of the fossil. Some fossils consist only of skeletal remains or teeth; other fossils contain traces of skin, feathers or even soft tissues. Once covered with sediment, these layers slowly become compacted and cemented into rock, and the organic remains are slowly replaced with hard minerals. This is a form of diagenesis.\n[edit]\n\nReplacement and compression fossils\n\nIn some cases the original remains of the organism have been completely dissolved or otherwise destroyed. When all that is left is an organism-shaped hole in the rock, it is called a mould fossil or typolite. If this hole is later filled with other minerals, it is called a cast fossil and is considered a replacement fossil since the original materials have been completely replaced by new, unrelated ones. In some cases replacement occurs so gradually and at such fine scales that no "hole" in the rock can ever be discerned and microstructural features are preserved despite the total loss of original material.\n\nCompression fossils such as those of fossil ferns are the result of chemical reduction of the complex organic molecules composing the org

It takes a very long time.  The oldest fossils are about 3.5 billion years old, but many are not nearly that old.  The youngest are probably only about 23 million years old or even less.\n\nThese links are helpful.

Don't really understand the question.\nThe ages are relative to the period in the geological time scale where the fossil was found.\nie is the fossil was found in Tertiary rocks it is about 70 million years old.\nI hope this helps.

Birbal Sahni Institute of Paleobotany is just for you. \n It is located in the state of Uttar Pradesh(U.P.) in Lucknow city of India. It is dedicated to the study of plant fossils.

Lyme Regis is well known for being good for fossil hunting. Also the Isle of Wight is good.
