Burgess Shale

The Burgess shale is a fossil field that is located in the Canadian Rockies that has a massive deposit of fossil formations that have been found to have many fossils that were from pre-historic age. These fossils which have been found are from many different groups of Animals. It has taken scientists by surprise, and they have not been able to answer how or what these animals were there. These are just a few images of the fossils that have been found, and what scientists have recreated them to look like.



This is a video of the recreation of the Burgess shale animals.
