HOLY FRED FLINTSTONE! DINO BONE UNEARTHED - BENEATH DENVER MUSEUM

The Denver Museum of Nature and Science unearthed a 67.5-million-year-old partial dinosaur below its parking lot—the deepest and oldest fossil discovered in the city limits. The partial vertebra - hidden more than 700 feet below surface - belonged to a plant-eating dinosaur, museum officials announced Wednesday. Drilling to assess the viability of geothermal energy for the museum led to the pre-historic surprise at 2001 Colorado Boulevard. The Denver Museum of Nature and Science already had about 115,000 dinosaur, plant and mammal fossils in its collections, according to the website Visit Denver.  [Photo: Denver Museum of Nature and Science]
