Mississippi Fossil Collecting blog is here to hopefully help others with finding information about finding, collecting and identifying fossils in Mississippi. Information I have found online is sparse and out dated. I am certainly not a professional blogger nor a professional fossil hunter, I am very amateur at both, but hopefully there will be improvement in both aspects as time progresses. Hopefully any information put forth will help others in the state of Mississippi get some current information about our hobby in the Magnolia State.
The Mississippi State fossil is the Prehistoric Whale Basilosaurus Cetoides and Zygorhiza and the Mississippi State stone has been designated as Petrified Wood. Mississippi was once part of a shallow sea and marine fossils are abundant.
