Digital artwork of a Late Cretaceous landscape featuring a herd of long-necked dinosaurs. The Tate Geological Museum will host a talk by Russell Hawley on March 4 to discuss how such ancient worlds are reconstructed from fossil evidence.

“Late Cretaceous Dinosaurs and Their World” is the next Tate Talk at the Tate Geological Museum.

Presented by Russell Hawley, education specialist at the museum, the talk will begin at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, March 4. The museum is located at the southern end of the Casper College campus, near the T. rex sculpture.

The presentation will focus on the dinosaurs of the late Cretaceous period. “We’ll see how the study of their fossil bones can help us reconstruct their appearance in life and provide clues about locomotion, behavior, and diet,” said Hawley.

This dinosaur live stream and in-person talk will also examine the other plants and animals that lived alongside these dinosaurs and explore how scientists and artists can collaborate to bring their Cretaceous world to life.
