Reply to comment by satinsateensaltine in Near-whole ankylosaur remains found, complete with its jagged spikes, most of its limbs, armor coating, and some of its guts and stomach contents. The remains could be a key to understanding aspects of Early Cretaceous ecology, and shows how this species may have lived within its environment. by drewiepoodle
I highly recommend the nearby Dinosaur Provincial Park, do the walking tour. I learned that you can lick your finger and press, it will be a bit sticky when you peel it off if it is a fossil and not if it is just a rock. There are fossils everywhere and you actually get to try for yourself.

A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry.
An incredibly good read that will make you feel incredibly terrible about humanity.

How about "Prepare to meet my end!" ... Although I suppose the doc will have already done by the time that gets ready.
