Recently Discovered "Mummified" Dinosaur Is So Well-Preserved It Even Has The Skin And Guts Intact (Photos & Video)

Since long years, Scientists have struggled to confirm what dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures may have looked like when they were alive. One researcher Who involved discovery said that; “We don’t just have a skeleton,” one said. “We have a dinosaur as it would have been.” Scientists are hailing it as the best-preserved dinosaur specimen ever discovered. That’s why you cannot see its bones – they remain covered by intact skin and armor.

Found accidentally by miners in Canada, this fossilized nodosaur is more than 110 million years old, yet patterns are still visible on the skin. According to the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology in Alberta, Canada, which recently unveiled the find, the dinosaur is so well-preserved that instead of a 'fossil', we could safely call it a 'dinosaur mummy.'
