About this episode
Digging for dinosaurs is a dream job for young children around the world. For a Winona State University professor, that is his job, and he’s just made one of the rarest dinosaur discoveries in the world. The fossils discovered in the Badlands of North Dakota is 66 million years old and may be what’s called a “dinosaur mummy.” That means skin and tissue from the dinosaur could still be intact. Joining Minnesota Now host Nina Moini to talk about his discovery is Winona State geoscience professor and paleontologist Lee Beatty.
