Therizinosaur coming to Mesa


The Museum of Northern Arizona's therizinosaur display opens on Octboer 3 at the Arizona Museum of Natural History in Mesa, and if you haven't seen, you have to go.

AZGS published a popular cover story in our newsletter Arizona Geology on the exhibit when it first opened at MNA in the Fall of 2007.

The mystery of how this land dinosaur ended up in marine deposits 100 miles offshore read's like a CSI-Cretaceous episode. It's a great way to get kids engaged in analytical thinking.
