Thanks nickcarraway.

[null and void]

One small step for [a] theropod, one giant leap for theropodkind

[SaveFerris]

They’re exactly almost the same, kinda, maybe sorta

[Robert DeLong]

Could be that the world’s now multiple landmasses were, at the time dinosaurs roamed, a single landmass.

[sauropod]

Where was the viable tissue found?

[dennisw]

Climate change BS researchers should have their billions in grant money taken away, and given to the dinosaur researchers.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

They were able to match individual toe prints.

So how did the dinosaur walk all the way across the Atlantic ??

[SaxxonWoods]

Yep, he was in Colorado too. He got around.

[nickcarraway]

All the continents used to be connected.

[sphinx]

He went by Pedro in Brazil but adopted M’Gabe when he got to Cameroon. Had to blend in with the locals.

So some fat dinos stepped across a crack and started the spread of the Atlantic ocean... : )

[Larry Lucido]

Didn’t matter. They still had to change flights in Atlanta.

[nickcarraway]

Better than O’Hare. Plus, they don’t allow triceratops in first class.

The discovery of viable dinosaur tissue [...]

Do you know the meaning of the word "viable?"

I once spent an enjoyable afternoon in Tuba City, Arizona looking at dinosaur footprints. They were three-toed, about three foot long, and looked exactly as if they were from a gigantic chicken.

[Verginius Rufus]

They...looked exactly as if they were from a gigantic chicken.

But did the dinosaurs who made the footprints taste like chicken? That is the unanswered question.

[Fresh Wind]

They must have been VERY large dinosaurs.

Mineralized soft tissue was found in the femur of a T. Rex in the Hell Creek Formation in Montana. The soft tissue was extracted and was found to contain vascular structures and cellular material. Here’s a link to a general science site that covers the finding, the initial scientific paper, and subsequent controversy: https://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/earth/geology/soft-tissue-dinosaur-fossil.htm
