"The existence of the fossil beds in the general area was known since the 1922 expedition of geologist Walter Shiller and paleontologist Santiago Roth. But the precise location was lost and remained unknown except to Dona Tica, who as a young girl had assisted the early expedition."
Had she dies at 97, they would have never found them.
What the hell was she thinking? Not once in 83 years did she think it was a good idea to let scientists know where the fossils were located?

Lord, how many species could there have been?
The number known seems to have exploded in the years since I was a small boy.

How can this dinosaur be related to the brontosaurus, when the brontosaurus no longer exists as a dinosaur name? (It is now called the apatosaurus.)

Dona knows they are real because she used to take rides on it.

When I see the phrase "New dinosaur" in a headline, I assume they're referring to something that existed less than 65 million years ago...

the dinosaur is a sauropod, a plant-eater related to the brontosaurus Sauropods are the ones that evolved into reptiles, right? As opposed to therapods that evolved into birds?
