SUMMARY:The Unusual Suspects - Who did it? - Paleontology Explorer
DESCRIPTION:Paleontologists deal in mysteries just like a police detective. They both look at evidence to recreate a scene. With paleontologists\, the scene involves what we call “trace fossils.” Some provide hints at how things lived\, feed\, or behaved. Park paleontologist\, Alan Goldstein\, will explore what we know about ancient life through indirect evidence. Free program meets in rotunda.
