## Caption

Did you know jellyfish can fossilize? Meet Kirklandia texana, a fossilized jellyfish from millions of years ago! 🌊 Jellyfish evolved 500-700 million years ago, but because they’re mostly water (95%!), their fossils are rare. Come check out this incredible specimen at Texas Science & Natural History Museum! #FossilFriday #Jellyfish #NaturalHistory
