Time Travelers - A Glimpse into the Caribbean's Ancient Bug World!

EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and behold a mesmerizing relic from the depths of time! This remarkable print transports you to an era when centipedes ruled the tropical forests of the Dominican Republic. Meet CAN-2447, our very own fossilized superstar! Imagine strolling through lush foliage millions of years ago, when these leggy creatures roamed freely. Encased in golden amber, this ancient centipede has been perfectly preserved for your viewing pleasure. Witness its intricate body structure and marvel at nature's craftsmanship. Amber is not just any ordinary resin; it's a magical time capsule that captures life itself! The hardened tree sap acted as Mother Nature's preservationist extraordinaire, trapping unsuspecting organisms like our dear friend CAN-2447 inside its golden embrace. Hailing from extinct species of tropical broadleaf trees known as Hymenaea, this creature takes us on a journey back to Central America's prehistoric wonders. It reminds us that even tiny insects have their place in Earth's grand tapestry. So come one, come all! Step into our world where fossils become storytellers and ancient bugs reign supreme. Let John Cancalosi’s stunning photography transport you to an extraordinary chapter in history—a tale told by trapped treasures waiting patiently for curious souls like yours. Remember folks, this isn't just any old company print; it’s an invitation to explore the mysteries
