INTO THE DINOSAURS' GRAVEYARD, tells the stories of the dinosaur hunters (a variety of mavericks and eccentrics), the important finds they've made in Canada and abroad, and the role they've played in establishing Canada's dinosaur heritage.
Since Confederation, evidence of some 50 classes of dinosaurs has been gathered in Canada. Many of these fossils came from the single most bountiful dinosaur site in the world, Dinosaur Provincial Park in Alberta, which to date has yielded more than 250 skeletons of 36 species of dinosaurs, and has helped to establish Canada as the fourth-richest source of fossils in the world.
