Digging for Dinosaurs
November 6, 2009
About 65 million years ago, dinosaurs all disappeared. There are no dinosaurs living now, but we do know that they lived very long ago. How do we know this? We know this because people have found dinosaur bones and other fossils.
A fossil is a part or all of an animal or plant that lived very long ago. Dinosaur bones are just one kind of fossil.
During this episode we’re going to be taking a closer look at what happens “Beyond the Paleo Lab Window” at the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis and learning about other kinds of fossils that can be found in the Hoosier State. Stay tuned!
