In August 2022, Museum Curator Melanie Hopkins and colleagues traveled to Anticosti Island in Quebec, which preserves unique fossil deposits that form a record of how marine invertebrate species, including trilobites, crinoids, and brachiopods, responded to the first mass extinction. Hopkins, who has been working in Anticosti since 2017, describes what clues these fossils may hold for future study. Watch to learn more!
