At the museum

In Wild World

When donating to Blathers in Wild World, he will provide the following information about the Fern Fossil:

"Hoo, a marvelous find! This fossil is in absolutely tip-top condition! This piece of fauna had just emerged from the sea when it became preserved. Rather than seeds, it relied on its spores to spread. It resembles moss with leaves! Ah! Terribly sorry, wot? Ancient plants turn me into a veritable hootbox!"

In City Folk

When donating to Blathers in City Folk, he will provide the following information about the Fern Fossil:

"You know, fern fossils represent the first life...that moved from the ocean to the land, eh wot? These fellows reproduce through spores, not seeds...One might say they're like moss with leaves! Hoo, simply mind-boggling! This fossil is a perfect specimen!"

In New Leaf

When donating to Blathers in New Leaf, he will provide the following information about the Fern Fossil:

"Originally, all plants on the planet were actually sea dwelling, but then they eventually spread to land. This fossilized fern is thought to be one of the very first plants to make this move to dry land. Reproducing via spores rather than seeds, it resembles modern ferns, though several yards taller."
