Dinosaurs burried in amber

        Ryan McKeller studied pieces of amber found burried with dinosaur skeletons. McKeller used the tiny pieces of fossilized tree resin to study the world in which the now extinct behemoths lived. McKeller said, "New techniques for investigating very tiny pieces of fragile amber burried in dinosaur bonebeds could close the gaps in knowledge about the ecology of the dinosaur.


       The type of amber that the scientist work with is not like the jewelry grade variety that can be made into a necklace or earrings. McKeller works with very small pieces of amber, just millimeters wide.But still that much can hold a great amount of clues from the past.
