救出蜗牛教授路线
Repair the Dig Site bridge, reach the cave northeast of the Dig Site, and free Professor Snail with an explosion or careful slingshot shot before the office becomes interactive.
Fossils

Complete the five-piece Large Animal display by combining Dig Site Bone Nodes, southern island artifact spots, Golden Coconuts, fishing, and panning.
Fossils
