Local Description2002. A near fine, unmarked copy. DescriptionDoctors Chiappe and Dingus led the research team which, on a field trip to the Patagonian desert in South America in 1997, came across an extraordinary palaeontological coup: the discovery of a kind of dinosaur maternity ward, a field of eggs 80 million years old, some of which were still unhatched. Then, on a later expedition, they found a nearly complete skeleton of a completely new species of dinosaur a 20-foot predator they named Aucasaurus, after Auca Maheuvo, the name they had given the site. |
