We are getting ready to move the Ichthyosaur fossil to the Museum!

14 May 2024

Our conservator, Tabatha along with a team of volunteers recently visited the fossil in MK Library to assess its current condition and to work out the best way to remove it from its mount. While we work on the risk assessments and gather all the tools we need to safely bring it to the Museum, Tabatha is making room for our friendly monster in her lab. The microscope is ready so that she can get up close and personal with the Ichthyosaur as soon as it arrives!
