The headlines:

" Almost all of them were discovered in Mongolia, because the preservation
of the rocks was so good there - the dinosaurs were everywhere, but very
often the rocks from their time have been destroyed"

been donated to the WA Museum
** This Week's feature Site: Nakasato Virtual Museum

magnification, so that a viewers can obtain more detailed features from the
QTVR object
