Just saw a social media post where someone painted over a fossil and it got me fired up
I was scrolling online and found a video of a person painting a fossil they dug up. They said it was to make it look better, but that wrecks the science we can learn from it. This kind of thing seems to be happening more now with folks treating finds like crafts. We really need to spread the word that geology is about more than looks. These rocks hold clues to our past, and messing with them erases history.
