FACE TO FACE WITH DINOSAURS.

The article focuses on recent significant dinosaur discoveries in Canada that are expanding scientific understanding of prehistoric species. Notable finds include Ruopodosaurus clava, a newly identified ankylosaur species from northeastern British Columbia, and Borealopelta markmitchelli, a remarkably well-preserved three-dimensional nodosaur from Alberta’s oilsands, whose fossilized skin reveals evidence of coloration. Additional discoveries include Thanatotheristes degrootorum, an early tyrannosaurid identified near Calgary, and several ceratopsian species such as Regaliceratops peterhewsi and Wendiceratops, highlighting Alberta’s rich fossil record. These findings, supported by advances in paleontological methods and international collaboration, contribute to a growing "paleo boom" that continues to uncover new species and insights into dinosaur biology and ecology.
