Colorado’s Dinosaurs
2017-12-11 13:00 - 14:00 | History Colorado Center, 1200 Broadway, Denver, 80203, United States
The rich paleontology of Colorado captures nearly the entire evolutionary history of dinosaurs, ranging from their first appearance in the Triassic to the last dinosaurs of the Cretaceous. Among them are legends like Stegosaurus and Allosaurus, so abundant in Colorado quarries they became the target of the late 1800s “Bone Wars.” Rocks preserved along the Front Range capture a once subtropical landscape, home to Tyrannosaurus Rex and Triceratops and many more, along with the best evidence we have to explain their sudden disappearance. Ongoing research continues to reveal secrets of Colorado’s prehistoric past. Join Dr. Joe Sertich, Curator of Dinosaurs at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, to explore the dinosaurs in our backyard and the history of major fossil finds across Colorado.

In The Newcomers: Finding Refuge, Friendship, and Hope in an American Classroom, readers learn about the families of the students, and the remarkable, harrowing journeys that have brought them to South High School in Denver: war, resettlements overseas, the process of seeking asylum, how badly the students and their families want to “be American.” Together, these stories create an urgent portrait of the real America, and a reminder that American wars overseas inevitably send refugees to our shores.​ Books available for sale and signing.

Dinosaurs of the Great Red Island
2017-12-12 19:00 - 20:30 | Denver Museum of Nature and Science, 2001 Colorado Blvd., Denver, CO, 80205, United States
The Great Red Island, commonly known as Madagascar, has been isolated for more than 88 million years, even though it’s separated from the southeast coast of Africa by less than 300 miles. David Krause, senior curator of vertebrate paleontology, and Joe Sertich, curator of dinosaurs, have studied Madagascar’s unique fossil record for years. Discoveries in the northwestern Mahajanga Basin have revealed an incredibly diverse and well-preserved assemblage of dinosaurs and other animals that thrived on Madagascar approximately 67 million years ago. Almost all of these species are new to science, and many represent extremely bizarre forms, such as the large predator Majungasaurus, the very bird-like dinosaur Rahonavis, the heaviest-known frog Beelzebufo, and the largest Mesozoic mammal of the southern hemisphere Vintana. These dinosaur hunters will share firsthand the amazing opportunity to work at this singular location on our planet and how ongoing expeditions continue to reveal significant scientific findings.
