Artist's Description
Florissant Fossil Bed NP Colorado
The Florissant Fossil Bed National Monument is a national monument located in Teller County, Colorado.

The fossils have been preserved because of the interaction of the volcanic ash from the nearby Thirtynine Mile volcanic field with diatoms in the lake, causing an algal bloom. As the algae fell to the bottom of the lake, any plants or animals that had recently died were preserved by the algal mats.
