Here are some pictures, a website, and video of the Burgess Shale, which we've just started studying in class. The site was discovered by Charles Walcott in 1909 and remains one of the world's most important fossil sites, especially for its abundance of the fossils of soft-bodied animals from the beginnings of the Cambrian explosion.
