Rhinoceros once lived in herds in ancient Nebraska
In Antelope County Nebraska, paleontologist Michael Voorhies uncovers about 36 rhinoceros skeletons and other fossils preserved by volcanic ash. The find reveals rhinoceroses were herd animals 10 million years ago at a watering hole. He plans one more digging season and envisions an outdoor museum, wary of souvenir hunters.
