Amateur PEI fossil hunter finds 290-million-year-old animal footprint
October 24, 2025
An amateur fossil hunter in Prince Edward Island has found an animal footprint believed to be the oldest of its type ever discovered – at an estimated 290 million years old.
Patrick Brunet said he found the footprint, which is 25 centimetres wide, along the shore of Hillsborough Bay last spring. Brunet, from North Rustico, P.E.I., said he was doing his usual walkabout when he noticed a curved-shaped piece of rock that had fallen from about halfway up a cliff.
