One of the things that makes the Green River Formation so scientifically important is how often it captures behavior, not just organisms. This specimen shows Mioplosus labracoides preserved during an aspiration event—likely suffocating after ingesting a disarticulated Knightia eocaena. While rare in the fossil record, this type of feeding-related mortality still occurs in modern freshwater ecosystems. The extraordinary preservation of the Green River lakes allows us to see moments like this froz
