A Fossil Fish at Western Wyoming Community College
This fossil was split from 50 million year old layered rocks found in western Wyoming. Each slab contains remnants of the original fish, and are called “part and counterpart.” If only one side or the other were displayed, the fossil fish would be incomplete, but when both sides are seen, the whole picture emerges. Such is the reality with fossils as well as with many of the issues that we encounter on a daily basis.
