A Shark Week Tale

Once upon a time, there was a team of palaeontologists that lived in the land of Morden, Manitoba. Their collection of fossils was the fairest in all the land, but because few people knew about these fossils, the magic contained within the collection could not be shared with the world.

A rare part of the collection was shark fossils. The rareness of these fossils gave them a special type of magic. These fossils contained a lot of mystery as to where they came from and the powers that they possessed.

One day, the palaeontologists decided they no longer wanted to keep these fossils a secret; they wanted to see the power of these fossils in the entire world! So they constructed a plan. They were going to have a whole week dedicated to these fossils and the magic that they possess. Tons of research went into learning about these fossils and how they have changed over the years. They looked at teeth, backbones, and any other shark fossils they could get their hands on. Slowly the magic began to reveal itself. The majestic nature that comes with sharks is something that can't be explained, rather it is experienced. Modern day sharks model much of this majesty and can be seen by many people throughout the world. Although the palaeontologists looked at these sharks too, the real inspiration was found in the ancient sharks that are no longer alive today.

An exhibit was created, facts were research, and now the CFDC presents SHARK WEEK 2017!
