Trove of dinosaur fossils found high in B.C. mountains

Paleontologists have made a groundbreaking discovery in northern British Columbia, uncovering over 90 dinosaur fossil bones in the rough terrain of the Spatsizi Plateau Wilderness Provincial Park. The fossils are believed to be 66 to 68 million years old and could potentially belong to a species yet to be described. This finding expands the understanding of where dinosaurs once lived and paves the way for further scientific exploration. The discovery was made by chance and is expected to take years to analyze, with potential implications for the historical record of the province. The unique environment of the mountains at a high elevation challenges previous understanding and opens doors for new discoveries.
