Update from the San Pedro High School Fossil Excavation

San Pedro High School Update: Envicom team members, Rowan Barton, Lauren Castaneda, and Sophia Muller, along with Los Angeles Unified School District team member Christy Wong, excavate within a nine-million-year-old marine fossil bone bed layer, found earlier this year.

To date, the LAUSD San Pedro High School site (featured on NPR, the LA Times, KCAL News and many others) has provided a wealth of information about Southern California's paleontological past, including four different Late Miocene bone bed layers. Dr. Wayne Bischoff (Envicom's Director of Cultural Resources) and his team, have discovered many marine fossils at the site, including fossils from extinct dolphins, whales, sea lions, sharks, sea turtles, marine birds, invertebrates, and lots of fish!
