Hayes Lecture
The Changing Face
of Dinosaur Research

with
BILL AND KRIS PARSONS

 
The discovery of any one dinosaur fossil is like finding a single page torn from a ancient book. For the past fifteen years Bill and Kris Parsons, along with a dedicated crew of volunteer friends, have been hunting vertebrate fossils from the Lower Cretaceous badlands of Montana. This lecture will provide a window into their intriguing research discoveries, including evidence that the raptor Deinonychus (Speilberg’s Jurassic Park Velociraptor) was feathered, consumed small animals, produced ‘owl pellets’ and may have even climbed trees.
