Decades-old drawer fossil is Antarctica's first dinosaur bone
A fossil discovered in 1985, now identified as a juvenile or small adult Titanosaur vertebra, is the first dinosaur remains found in Antarctica. The fossil sat in storage for decades before being recognized as evidence that long-necked herbivorous dinosaurs once lived on the continent during the Late Cretaceous period. This finding provides new insights into dinosaur distribution and suggests that more fossils may be uncovered as ice retreated due to climate change.
