No problem. Everyone needs to know this basic Psych 101 information. I hope it makes it to the Top 15. It might have made it there already, had it not gone dead temporarily. Hence my promote, to help make up for lost time.

More please.

Yeah, that's a great fossilized set of skin and tendons etc. Which certainly is pretty amazing for showing us that they really did have skin that was scaly as thought, however, it's not like the T-Rex or the Mammoths where the soft tissue is actually still soft. The soft tissue in the case of the hadrosaur has been turned into rock, it's amazing just for the fact that usually it rots before it can get anywhere near that state.

I found one other article about a hadrosaur. I was at the AMNH a few months ago, fittingly for a lecture on paleogenomics, and I'm sure I saw exhibits on other examples. The lecture was about mastodon sequencing, and the lecturer (whose name I can't fucking remember OR find online--grrr) didn't talk about dinos. Here's an article about the hadrosaur:

From a brief look around, there would seem to be only one case of soft tissue from a dinosaur being found http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/03/0324_050324_trexsofttissue.html

Some soft tissue from inside the leg bone of a T-Rex. Which is pretty frigging amazing in my mind, they re-hydrated the stuff and could get out flexible, transparent material... stunning... stunning stuff to find from 65 odd million years ago.

But I was talking of a whole body like these Mammoths, being preserved... it'll never happen, and the things in La Brea tarpits are much more recent aren't they? Mammoth age and the like, Sabre Tooth tigers and the like, the age of man, not the age of Dinosaurs.

Still, amazing stuff... I guess since seeing Jurassic Park I've actually wanted to see it actually happen... minus the maiming and killing of course.

And also, you see that large one in the diarama they show near the end... that's a friggen real stuffed adult Mammoth.

Makes me wish there was a T-Rex or Brontosaurus frozen in permafrost somewhere than can be found... imagine actually finding a dinosaur with skin, organs etc... it'd be incredible.

There are actually quite a few dino fossils that have preserved tissue other than bone. There are some at the AMNH that have skin and partial internal organs intact; and I believe the La Brea tarpits in LA are home to some extremely well preserved tissues as well.

Dont kid yourself, you are hooked.
