Found a Fossil is a national science‑communication initiative dedicated to making palaeontology and archaeology accessible, providing guidelines on how to handle both fossil and First Nations artefact discoveries in Australia. Found a Fossil blends original scientific research, with hands‑on, and engaging for learning of all ages. Through school incursions, community workshops, museum partnerships, and public events, Found a Fossil brings real fossils, scientific tools, and evidence‑based storytelling directly to curious minds across Australia.
Founded by palaeontologist and science communicator Sally Hurst.
