Always a pain to prepare, but somewhat showy - Zeacrinites from the Bangor Formation of Alabama.

Been a little while since I posted because I’ve been slacking on the descriptions, but hey! Have Uintacrinus, probably the weirdest animal I’ve done so far!

Uintacrinus
Utacri
Crinoid from the Uinta Mountains

Crinoids are a very interesting animal order. They're echinoderms, so related to sea sponges, starfish, and urchins. Crinoids opted for the sedentary lifestyle, anchoring themselves to stone or rock or coral and catching whatever algae or other food passed by.. except for one. Uintacrinus is a crinoid from the cretaceous, but more strangely, is found fossilized in these massive sheets of just it, tangled within itself and other organisms. Ultimately, this turned into a discovery.. Uintacrinus was a free-swimming crinoid, floating around in massive groups like floating coral reefs.

Utacri reefs are very rare, I will admit. They aren't that large, maybe a few feet long at the biggest, but there's always tons of them. They float around like jellyfish, occasionally randomly reaching for whatever prey catches their eye. They'll grab onto anything if they think its interesting, though that sometimes causes giant predators to get caught up in them like nets. That.. doesn't end well for the Utacri's.
