"Amazing dinosaur discovery"
"Utah site yields first Cretaceous-era sauropod skulls ever in N. America"
By Joe Bauman
Deseret Morning News, May 30, 2005
"About a dozen sauropod skulls are known from the Jurassic era, the
great middle period of dinosaur life. But for the Cretaceous, the final 80
million years of the rule of dinosaurs, no sauropod skulls have been known
from
North America.
Until now.
Over the past few years, experts at Dinosaur National Monument on the
Utah-Colorado border and at Brigham Young University have quietly worked on an
astonishing four sauropod skulls or parts of skulls, found close to each other
at
the monument."
