Description
Mary Anning grew up in England in a region rich in fossils unearthed by the sea. At the age of twelve, she discovered England's first ichthyosaur. Anning would become one of the most celebrated paleontologists ever, though in her time she was a rarely acknowledged, poor woman who supported herself selling fossils. Her findings helped shape scientific thinking about prehistoric life and prove that extinction can occur decades before Darwin discussed evolution.
