Dino Update

National Geographic News: "A spectacular dinosaur 'graveyard' containing thousands of fossils has been discovered in eastern Spain, scientists say.

Eight different dinosaur species, including several kinds of armor-clad plant-eaters that were among the world's largest types of dino, have been identified among the 8,000 fossils found to date, according to experts excavating the site.

Uncovered last June during the construction of a high-speed rail link near the city of Cuenca (see map), the fossil boneyard may represent the largest and most diverse dinosaur site known in Europe, scientists say."
