Giant fossils of turtles and a snake were found near the Bulgaria-Greece border on the territory of Kirkovo Municipality, South Bulgaria. They are part of a very large complex consisting of hundreds of other fossils. The fossils were found literally several meters away from the former border fence. They were discovered accidentally by a foreign tourist who shared some photos of the fossils on the Internet.

According to a recent idea, eco pathways leading to the newly-discovered fossils may be built with money under the Cross-border Cooperation Programme.
