Because it's for adults, |
Bigger is not always better. This one has good size and grasping arms. You start getting them too big, and they get pretty clunky. |
I am not arguing with Larry [Witmer] on his information about the ear. But it is really odd that we have an animal that looks like it should be agile but isn't. It is one of those puzzles that we have with dinosaurs. |
I like the broken up ones, I like to saw holes in them and look inside of them, ... When it comes to science, putting up a skeleton and just looking at it just doesn't do anything for me. I want to know something about that dinosaur. |
I think what we have to do now is re-model dinosaurs. |
I usually work in Montana, that's where I was born and raised and that's where there are lots of places to look, ... Right now I'm looking for animals like Tyrannosaurus Rex. |
I was born and raised in Montana, so it's certainly an honor for me to be the state paleontologist. I take the honor very seriously. More than anything, it's an honor to be involved in the statewide education of kids. |
It's a good thing not very many people were watching, |
Mary, a former student of mine, and I just broke bones up, dug things out of them and just destroyed bones, and she's very good at that, ... Mary's discoveries produced what appeared to be blood tissues and red blood cells, very similar to what we see in modern day ostriches. |
Our new media center will make the Museum of the Rockies one of the premier dinosaur museums in the country. People will be able to come to our museum and watch us work in the field. |
Some years ago the Smithsonian wanted a T-rex for its new dinosaur hall, |
That worked great. The footage went out all over the world. |
That's what I do -- my job is to walk, ... I just walk and walk and walk and I've walked in Romania, Mongolia, Tanzania -- all these places to find dinosaurs. |
The people in Rudyard are very, very friendly, and I think they very much enjoy having us there and we just have a generally good time there. |
The Rudyard project is actually a satellite thing for the Museum of the Rockies. We're calling it the Rudyard field station, and we're lending them lots and lots of specimens and all kinds of things. |
