An amazing find!

Unearthed from the Badlands: A 66-million-year-old giant. 🦖

Meet "Shady"—a colossal, seven-foot Triceratops skull weighing as much as a compact car. Discovered by David Schmidt and a dedicated team from Westminster College, this isn't just a fossil; it is one of the most significant paleontological finds in recent history.

Extracting Shady was a feat of grit and precision. Encased in concrete-hard sandstone, the team spent weeks meticulously freeing the skull. For the students involved, this was more than fieldwork; it was a direct interface with deep time, revealing a creature that once stood as a living fortress against apex predators like the T-Rex.

From a scientific perspective, Shady is a goldmine. The preservation allows us to analyze jaw mechanics and ancient pathologies, potentially revealing battle scars from millions of years ago. But beyond the biology, this skull represents a marvel of evolutionary engineering. The massive frill was likely a multi-functional tool: a defensive shield, a thermal regulator, and a social signal all in one.

💡 Fascinating Insight: That famous frill wasn't just static bone. Theories suggest it was highly vascular, potentially allowing the dinosaur to "blush" or change color to signal dominance or attract mates. A prehistoric mood ring, built for survival.
