Fossilized Mosasaur Remains Donated to Sternberg Museum
Mahlon Tuttle, his wife Carolyn, and Tom Nolan donated fossilized mosasaur stomach contents found on Tuttle’s land to Sternberg Museum of Natural History. Adjunct curator Mike Everhart explained the remains may be the last meal of a mosasaur from about 80 million years ago, rather than coprolites. The donors and curator discussed the discovery during their Hays visit.
