Hello and welcome to I know Dino. I'm Garrett.

And I'm Sabrina.

And today we have an interview with Jack Horner, which we're really excited about,

and a discussion about mayasora peopelsorum, as well as a lot of dinosaur news.

So first in the news, there's a story from gotscience.org by David Hohn,

and he describes the giraffe a titan that's in the museum for nature in Berlin.

It has been installed there since the 1930s, but then it was disassembled, cleaned, repaired, and remounted back in 2007.

Back when it was originally mounted, they pierced many of the bones with metal rods in order to hold it up,

and that allowed them to mount it in a way that looked a little bit more, you know, realistic, I guess, even though you'd never see a dinosaur's

bones like that. But it, you know, wasn't covered in metal. It was a little more hidden. But obviously,

that's not the best way to preserve fossils drilling a bunch of holes in it. So when they put it back up, they built a complete metal framework around it, and they

use that basically to hang the bones off of it rather than pierce them.

So there's a lot of wrapping metal around it.

You see more metal, but obviously better for the fossils.

The new style also allows them to easily remove individual bones

for research or cleaning, and while they had all the bones out, they took the opportunity to

digitally scan key bones for research. We've talked to some about those 3D models that they have.

The article also goes into some details about different fossils, quote-unquote fossils,

that you might see in a typical mounted dinosaur. Because complete fossilized skeletons are very rare,
