Re: DINOSAUR BABIES

[Mikiel <Mikiel@ASU.Edu>]

        For those of you who are interested in sketchy information:
 I recently returned from a dig with the Museum of the Rockies.  We were 
working in the Cloverly  Formation outside Bridger, 
Montana.  On the last day at the site one of the volunteers (alas, it 
wasn't me) Dan Collins found A LOT of baby bones.  We surface swept the 
area and collected approximately 50 tiny dino bones.  No-one could make a 
guess at the genus at the time, but very few baby bones had been found in 
the Cloverly before, so we were pretty excited.  That's about all I know 
about the find for the time being.
