Inquiry Centre Challenge

Sometimes you may be asked to Find a Fossil by hunting through selections of pointed shells, mussels, round shells and other fossils in a collection.

Challenges are changing all the time so pop in to our Inquiry Centre on Level 3 and take up the challenge!

The answers to the above puzzle are:

1. Pig (Skull);  2. Dugong (bottom jaw bone);  3. Cow (Bottom Jaw);  4. Turtle;  5. Horse (bottom Jaw);  6. Turtle; 7. Dugong (Skull).
