Were halfway through our project campaign and what better way to push through the midway point then with some pathologies! Jenn, aka Indy, will be applying these same principals to ID the skeletal injuries and abnormalities in the hundreds of sauropod bones at the Wyoming Dinosaur Center. Keep visiting our page for more fun fact videos and pictures and please remember to share our project with family, friends, and colleagues!
