At any rate, there's been a discovery of a massive new Cambrian fossil field right near the Burgess Shale. Apparently there are a lot of soft-bodied organisms and 22% of the fossils appear to be of newly-discovered species.
The Cambrian fascinates me and I love this discovery. I hope they discover a better-preserved example of my favorite Cambrian animal, the anomalocaris.
