Tweet

Two young brothers and their cousin went hiking in the North Dakota Bureau of Land Management near the badlands near Marmarth in 2022 when the trio who are Jessin, 10, and Liam Fisher, 7, and their cousin Kaiden Madsen, 9, went hiking with their dad and uncle Sam Fisher when they found a Tyrannosaurus (T Rex) fossil coming out of the ground. The group contacted Tyler Lyson who is a classmate of Sam Fisher who is now the Curator of Paleontology for the Denver Museum of Nature & Science to help identify what they found. Tyler and his team of paleontology members accompanied the family members to the same place where they found the fossil a year later. where it was confirmed that the discovery was legitimate. The fossil will make its debut at Denver Museum Nature & Science "Discovering Teen Rex" exhibit on June 21. Many people are saying that going on hikes with relatives is better than staying at home playing video games. Link is upi.com/3161718041953 via @upi
