In Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori
Alfonso and Yū manage to dig up an ammonite fossil in 🎬 Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori during the summertime. Later, they, along with Ai, Margie, and Rosie, go into a cave to hunt for more ammonite fossils. After going through a waterfall, they stumble upon a mountain of ammonite fossils. Later in the wintertime, when searching for the Gulliver's spaceship part, Yū and the others see the same mountain of ammonite fossils.
Real-world information
Ammonites were a group of cephalopods which lived from the Devonian to the Cretaceous period. Despite their appearance, they are more closely related to the coleoids (shell-less cephalopods like squids, cuttlefish, and octopuses) than nautiluses (which have shells). They were extremely abundant during the Mesozoic - with some species used as index fossils to mark the beginnings of geologic stages - and remain the most common fossils on beaches. They went extinct at the same time as the non-avian dinosaurs.
