New tyrannosaur fossil is most complete found in southwestern US
(PHYSorg.com Archaeology & Fossils)
 


A remarkable new fossilized skeleton of a tyrannosaur discovered in the Bureau of Land Management`s Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument (GSENM) in southern Utah was airlifted by helicopter Sunday, Oct 15, from a remote field site, and delivered to the Natural History Museum of Utah where it will be uncovered, prepared, and studied.  The fossil is approximately 76 million years old and is most likely an individual of the species Teratophoneus curriei, one of Utah`s ferocious tyrannosaurs that walked western North America between 66 and 90 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous Period.
