Dinosaurs

Could the next Jurassic Park movie be set in Missouri? Don't laugh. Did you know that the state of Missouri is one of the only states in America to have its own state dinosaur? It's true and there's a very good reason for that.

When I think of Missouri history, I think of Daniel Boone. That's accurate, but in this case you need to go way further back than guys in coonskin caps. There's a mastodon that was first discovered in Missouri and not out west where most people think.

Someone needs to call Stephen Spielberg and let him know that one of his creatures got loose and is making cameos on Missouri trail cam videos. Not really, but call him anyway if you can.

A very old former Missouri resident just road-tripped to a museum in Chicago. He/She/It used to be a dinosaur 75 million years ago, but is now being prepared to put on a show for you.

The dinosaurs have taken over the St. Louis Zoo. Sort of. It is true though that you can see these prehistoric giants year round now.

Dinosaurs are always in the last place you look. This is a great example. One of these extinct creatures was just discovered in the state that specializes in showing stuff: Missouri.

T. Rex, Spinosaurus, Triceratops, you name it, it's there. And they move! And they roar!

With my job I have access to a lot of information. Stuff like police reports, agriculture news,sports information, financial reports and celebrity information. Every once in a while I come across information that just makes me sit up and wonder....who actually researched this?
