Paleontologists have been studying nodosaurs since the 1830s, but nobody had ever found a specimen like Borealopelta before. The key to its exceptional preservation was where it ended up after it died and how it got there.
Thanks to the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology for providing us with images for this episode. tyrrellmuseum.com/
And thanks as always to Ceri Thomas for the excellent Borealopelta illustrations! / alphynix
And thanks to paleontologists Caleb Brown and Donald Henderson of the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Alberta, and Jakob Vinther of the University of Bristol for their help with this episode.

Can we please just appreciate the fact that a man spent *6 years* of his life cleaning up this fossil?
truly dedicated
Sounds like a relatively nice job. You sit alone in a quiet air conditioned room and work. No Karens and apparently not much of a deadline
Limi V And no awful music to listen to, except by your own choosing!
I may be wrong but I’m pretty sure a lot of people spend years cleaning fossils
But nonetheless respect to this guy and all those who do it
The fact that we can analyze stomach contents of a dinosaur is pretty rad.
Yes yet we still have simpletons that believe we lived with dinosaurs and rode around on them with saddles.
Back then we were analyzing their Petrified Poo..Indeed, its rad.
@@janrdoh Yabba Dabba Do
janrdoh
We may not have lived with dinosaurs, but I’ll bet we can bloat and float with the best of them!
@@janrdoh and people thinking evolution is fake...
"Beat the odds" she says. That's an understatement. That thing floated a couple hundred kilometers at sea and then *down* to the seabed before being covered, in an environment filled to bursting with creatures that specifically look for random floating nom-noms.
That's pretty incredible.
At least you didnt say it "survived" the journey lol
Not to mention when they were hauling the concretion out, they didn’t support it properly and the thing cracked in half and shattered into a million pieces; probably why the guy spent so long working on it
shi cool asf idc
@@stephenlawrence554 omg that sucks
@Bill Clinton - I see dead people it was a chonky, scaly herbivore, so it probably resisted much more before letting it's gases out than you could think.
And since it had its armor pointing downwards, scavengers would've had problems trying to eat it. It would be like eating a boat.
That fossil is incredible! You can almost see the animal as though it was still alive.
I remember being a kid, digging 6 inches deep in the backyard, expecting to find fossils. 😛
same lmao my dumbass thought i would find a fossil or oil or something
Hah same, I was always hoping to find some bones in the backyard dirt behind the woodshed. I did however find a few plant fossils scouring beach rocks (was always collecting and looking at rocks as a little guy), and have seen ancient shells of things in sea-cliffs as a kid on various parts of the Nova Scotia coast. That always made my day big time.
@@Caun-88
Wow! I would love to find a fossil myself
I was even dumber, I was scratching between the concrete in the playground expecting to find a dinosaur, completely oblivious to the fact people had to dig there before pouring that concrete xD
The best I ever found was a native peoples' arrowhead. Beat the usual rusted cans and bottle shards, however.
I'm so used to seeing fossils as just bare skeletons that seeing what amounts to a cast of the whole creature from the outside is just mind blowing. That was seriously amazing.
There is a whole mammoth frozen with skin and fur preserved (flesh as well. It was found frozen in a tundra. As well as many tar pits and amber showing insects in amber and some rare examples of internals preserved in tar. )
@@hossdelgado626 This is a loooot older than a mammoth, though. Pre-KPg is something special.
@@hossdelgado626mammoth is very new. Like from homo sapiens times.
Dinosaurs are from time before mammals were a thing
@@jcortese3300 I was just mentioning it cause its cool. I'm aware, whyd two of you feel the need to try and call me out for this lol
@@Dr.Kraig_Ren see other comment
A friend of mine was working on this crew in Ft. Mac, Alberta when this fossil was found. He sent me pics when they found it. I still have a few of them. It was pretty exciting. A few years later, my wife and I went to Drumheller, (we go every so often, as we live in AB) of course we visit the Royal Tyrrell Museum every time. It was really something to see it there, knowing that our friend had been part of the crew that found it. Drumheller is one of the richest deposits of dinosaur fossils in the world, and their 2 museums are full of world class specimens. I feel lucky to live so close to it, and visit it every few years.
It’s so cool how these animals just walked the earth just hanging out. Billions of years later we still are searching and discovering the lite real beast that roamed the earth (and it’s seas ‘.-)
Billions?
Millions. Earth is only 3 billion years old and life didn't even begin until like 900 million years
@@Deadsea_1993 5 billion*
I live here!!! My dad had seen the remains in the bank when they were working on it, it got me into fossil hunting with great success! This fossil means so much to me and has shaped me as a person. Ive worked at the site where it where it was found as with my whole family, being around the fossil is a remarkable experience it’s energy is almost haunting, It’s my favourite fossil of all time and I will always be in debt to this fossil for changing my life
Ur a legend
Future palaeontologist detected. ;-)
Wow, cool.
Holy crap, thats freakin awesome!!!
@@FlurinRupp When you think about it, if he was 18 when he was near the fossil, he could have become a palaeontologist before they finished to prepare the fossil.... That's how long it can take to take care of fossils XD
Can we appreciate a moment for Steve. He's not only supporting PBS but rather a lot of educational show on YT. Episode for Steve!
I hope that video gets made.

Steve’s the man!
Jon Davidson NG as well, Konstantin Haase too, and that other mysterious person (I forgot the name :-/) who supported SciShow from very early on, even when they had their own crowdfunding platform - maybe someone can remember the name?
EDIT: SR Foxley - thanks Lyre Paradox :-)
@@cheaterman49 SR Foxley?
1:57 How did he end up in the deep sea? Jurassic mobsters, that’s how! He tried to convince the Ankylosaur gang he was going to turn on Don Dinosaur but the Ankylosaurs saw through him and the and next thing you know, “Nodosaur sleeps with the fishes.”
Also explains why the head was disconnected from the rest of the body. 0:54 The Ankylosaurs garroted him before they dropped him in the water.
sleeps with the ichtyosaurs lol
simple scientific deductions are the best. 😂
What a sense of humour
Are u ok
KFHWHDJF I DEAD😭
Thank you PBS Eons for acknowledging the under-represented people of the lands where these fossils were discovered.
yeah that was and unexpected screen. I was thinking about how sand oil is an environmental disaster then this info makes me even more bitter about that industry.
@@PainterVierax And in conclusion i assume you are boycotting oil? And you understand this fossil was only discovered due to ethical mining of a resource we all use?
@bnet sucks what would people like you and the other commentator do if you weren't around these days, and say 50 years or more ago. The world and nature are way more cruel than humans, humans are just more efficient.
Life and nature aren't fair, they don't care. Only those best adapted to an environment, plus intelligence survive. The way it has always been.
@@jr2904 The intelligence is to not waste fossil resources and to have a bit of consciousness about preserving the ecosystem we still have and not being short-sighted for our own survival as a specie and as a civilization. You can't eat or breathe money.
Kallie makes "Bloat and Float" sound so much more fun than it probably is 😂
It's a good description of how I spend my time in a pool
"Bloat and Float" sounds like a spell from WoW.
She literally makes learning for me fun
Simp
Its actually disgusting to be honest. Havent you seen the walking dead when they send glen down the well to tie up the walker? Yeah. That.
If the worker was using a bucket with teeth, the excavator would've gone through the fossil with far more aggressive smashing and such. Really lucky there. Also big thank you to that observant and thoughtful worker.
Yeah, I wonder how many better fossils were destroyed because greedy corporations refused any slow downs and just smashed even obvious nicely preserved specimens :(
They were using a flat edge bucket.
Well no the reality is it was a shovel which loads the big haul trucks at the bottom of the pit, the back half was dumped into a truck never to be seen again unfortunately, and yes Shaun Funk! He’s da mannnnn he’s a hero of mine haha and Mark Mitchell props to both of them, it’s what got me into fossil hunting
they could have mentioned his name
the workers in the mine are given some training to spot these fossils, i have only been at the upgraders up there and even there in orientation they mention to freeze everything if a fossil is found
My cousin was actually the one who found this when he was mining for sun core and they said when they dug into the ground they new it was a fossil. But the fact the tail is missing is because the original mining caused damage to it and was accidentally extracted as rubble and was dumped and never found sadly
Imagine if they found it whole😯 such a shame they didn’t notice it…
The message at the end about fossils found on native land means so much! I'm all in for socially aware science
The sharp eyed equipment operator at Suncor deserves credit for acting quickly. He saw something strange high up on a near vertical wall he was stripping with a mining excavator. The entire fossil is available to science because he shut down the local production due to a perceived material anomaly. Suncor then went to considerable effort and expense to facilitate the collection of this specimen. The logistics of transportation were very challenging as the fossil is very massive and very delicate. It takes a lot more than science and arduous lab work to bring these discoveries to light.
Thank you for the information about how it was found. I'm glad the worker & company were willing to go to the effort (& expense, I would guess) that has given us this valuable fossil.
"The Dinosaur Who Was Buried at Sea."
Never knew there was a Dino Navy. Sounds like an episode of The Flintstones.
No, it's well known that the Vikings copied the dinosaurs in their boat burning burials
zCiver true but they did add fire in there version of the burleys, so they are original
"It's a living!"
The true extinction event was the dinosaurs nuking each other.
NoubyScrub and it happened because of over a trade war, cause war ever changes
The host seem to enjoy what she's doing which is rare nowadays especially talking about dinosaurs.
Found in my home province! Acknowledgement of the indigenous was very heartwarming and it was very much appreciated :)
That's more acknowledgment than our own government gives
We should also acknowledge many native tribes and workers are involved in oilsands projects. Sometimes reporters only focus on the protesters. Even if they're a minority of the group they claim to represent
Agreed!
I have gone to see this fossil in person- the pictures don't do it justice. It is amazing. The face and head is so well preserved, you can see *eyelids*. It honestly looks like it is just sleeping, that is how amazing it is.
The last time I was this early, we thought that Spinosaurus was a land-dweller that could fight T. rex.
Look I’ve never gotten to make a joke like that before, lemme have this one.
Epic
Haha
it was a joke before time
Pretty sure he still could but it would lose most of the time, both on water tho, poor rex would die every time imo.
Even T-Rex is not able to fight Spinosaurs...they lived 30 million years before T-Rex.
I went to see this beautiful nodosaur in person and I cried because a) I'm a mess b) it's just so beautiful. Truly looks like its about to come back to life and walk right out of the building.
I understand you, i had the same feeling the first time i go to a museum, can't hold tears. Huuuh sadly i'm un France and can't see that beautiful nodosaur fossil, but one day i expect !
Thank you, Eons, for acknowledging the fact that the rights of most if not all indigenous peoples in the Americas were trampled under foot over the last few centuries.
That's common knowledge by now. It isn't common knowledge about how those same Natives trampled over other Natives. The Roanoke people were kidnapped, enslaved, and forced to become Native Americans. A guy lost his entire family in the process while he was away getting supplies. The Pontiac empire had about 30 absorbed smaller tribes. It is almost like slavery and how that is still going on in Africa and the Middle East.
@@Deadsea_1993 Nobody wants to talk about the brutal inter-tribal warfare that happened for centuries all over the Americas, people pretend like it didn't happen. I didn't even learn about it for the first decades of my life, I was basically told that it was all sunshine and roses until euros showed up.
@@AspireGMDTo be honest, it was atleast balanced, the natives didnt even really kill on raids, they hurt eachother until they submitted and were then left alone by most tribes, its all fun and games until someone brings a gun to a bow fight
@@AspireGMD a lot of this is not true, and even if it was it does not excuse the fact that their land was stolen, they were enslaved, genocided, and treated like pests instead of human beings.
A couple of years ago i couldn't have imagined that we could know dinosaurs colour and that some were countershaded. Even a nodosaur like borealopelta markmitchelli. Loved it when the discovery was announced in 2017.
I love that it's in our time and we get to be excited about so many interesting discoveries that makes us rethink of what we thought we knew!
@@justine7126 I don’t know I think there are more exciting times. Like, in the early 20th century if you’d have told physicists we wouldn’t really have made much progress a century later they’d be disappointed.
@@HkFinn83 Relativity, space stuff, materials... we've come a long ways from the 1900s.
yeah i remember when i was kid reading book about dinosaur at the bottom of picture says "this is just speculation of what the dinosaur look like. we do not know the color or other feature until further discovery." and now this? this is just mind blowing.
I don’t know how they can make this subject so interesting to watch
It's all in the presentation. I once had a lecturer talk about body size in lizards who made it sound pretty fascinating. I also had a genetics lecturer that could make the most interesting subjects be yawn inducing
@Chris Paul hahahahahaha facts lol zapple having a bit of a blonde moment
It's literally dinosaurs dude. There isn't much more interesting than dinosaurs.
@@emperorofthegreatunknown4394 tbh I wasn't a dinosaur kid. But watching this show and Scishow makes them more exciting to me. It also helps that there have been several recent discoveries, like this one and some of the amber ones, that have radically expanded and changed what we thought about dinosaurs
There is another factor. It could have fallen through ice in winter. Ice cold water does slow down decomposition.
Then again. That would depend on the fossil's latitude during the Cretaceous Period.
so you're saying they were warm-blooded?
jezus22: Dinosaurs are now thought to be at least partly “warm-blooded”, in control of their body temperature, rather than depending on the environmental temperature.
@@jezus22 That's like, absolutely not what he meant.
It was the size of an ocean so no one winter would freeze it over, especially not enough to get out as far as it did and it's from decomposition that gases are produced and allow it to float out that far.
My question however is how come it hasn't been completely shredded by all the marine life that would have tried to eat it? I mean that's where the mosasaurs lived, right?
Imagine how many dinosaurs have been destroyed in construction because the operator reported it to the boss and the boss tells them not to tell anyone or they're fired for putting the site behind schedule
6:40 🎶 My neck, my back, my siderite won't crack
I despise you
HA-!
lol
“Bloat and float”
Hahaha, same.
Sir? please kiss me
xD
I just want to give props to the lady in this video. I started watching when this channel first started and this lady has made leaps and bounds in her presentation. Great job!
B. markmitchelli, dying: *thinking of Mark Mitchell* "Im gonna make this mans whole career"
"An improbable ambassador from the early Cretaceous."
Amazing narration !!
@@kraanz Ambassador: "an accredited diplomat sent by a country as its official representative to a foreign country." Dino is the diplomat, country is the Cretaceous, foreign country is the present. Seems like a good word choice to me.
Edit: Oh, they deleted their reply.
Thank you for including that recognition of indigenous people and the sometimes unapproved digging and fossil removal.
They sure don’t like progress and would rather live in the Stone Age and not evolve
chae gibson so not wanting the land and resources that is rightfully theirs exploited and used without their permission = living in the stone ages now? That is an incredibly stupid and backwards take
I got to see this fossil 3 days ago at the royal Terrell museum. It was every bit as amazing as I’d hoped. I’ve been fascinated by dinosaurs since I was a child. As a 33 year old man I wasn’t expecting to have such an emotional reaction. The level of detail is amazing. With the lighting and right angle, it just looked like it was sleeping. It still gives me chills.
this is probably one of my favorite videos, i love when dinosaurs are preserved so well like this
I feel like it should have been named for the lad who hit it with his excavator and decided to check it out before pulverizing it.
Yes struck an odd note to me too. The person who cleaned the fossil was an enthusiast who came in. It was the worker who probably risked his job to stop works on the site just for something that seemed different.
Fun fact! Alberta had a law regarding finding fossils, in that they’re automatically property of the government. If you find a fossil, even if you only think it is, you have to call a museum to have them look at it and make that call for you. Furthermore, oil companies are super regulated in terms of environmental responsibilities, and oil sands can be hotspots for fossils (considering the RTM has a whole exhibit for fossils found in oil sands or construction sites) so I would assume these companies have policies in place for finding a suspected fossil :)
But yes, kinda stinks the fossil wasn’t names after the worker
Lol yea
@@katelyng2014 Well to be fair, the intern who cleaned it spent YEARS on it
I hope I get to see this beauty in person one day
I like your videos
hi
your vids are nice
@@glennjpanting2081 I thought the same thing!!!
You will never see a live dinosaur (except birds and very partly reptiles)
Same
Seeing that thing so immaculately preserved feels bizarre. It's like you suddenly de-abstract all those concepts of dinosaurs, as you see one just sitting there in front of you and have a visceral image of it.
I know, it it very strange. Little artistic license for any features, not even the color, we essentially know exactly what this animal looked like, same with the Psittacosaurus.
This channel is awesome. I learn so much! Love you, Eons. Greetings from Argentina 💚
This was an amazing episode! I remember seeing this specimen at the tyrell museum and it didn't include even half of the information this video did!
It was in an oilsands exhibit and the signs talked more about the oilsands than the actual fossil! I'm glad to finally learn about it in a proper way.
That's too bad there wasn't more information with the display. The reason behind the oilsands info is likely about maintaining a strong relationship with the various companies. It takes time and care to excavate a fossil, and showing that the Tyrell can do this work efficiently and not cause a slow down for the companies is important.
To be fair, the only reason it was discovered was due to the mine. So highlighting that and the contribution of the workers is important
@@seagreen42 Except they did it ""efficiently"" by destroying half of the fossil, not to mention tons of (possibly better) fossils smashed because greedy corporations refused to slow down and just pulverized the whole area :(
@@KuK137 Greed and not caring is encouraged in our society. It's why the greediest, most unethical people end up in CEO positions. The scum always rises to the top.
@@odizzido In my country we say ever: motherf***** are allways succefully ppl.
That's very interesting, when I was a kid in the 90s these creatures were depicted as something like a semi aquatic mosesaur type marine reptile. It's great to see science evolve
Ankylosaurus was discovered in 1908 and was never considered a marine animal
You're probably thinking of Nothosaurus, which fits your description: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nothosaurus
@@jeb8107 ah yes that makes sense thanks
Did you grow up in a church? Lmao. I’m a 90s baby too. Never heard anything like that.
Good job on this video Kallie you always manage to make whatever topic being discussed way more interesting with your commentary.
This is so fixing cool the way it’s able to preserve itself like that and how it looks after preserving
what a beautiful and interesting animal.

Me too!!!
I watch them after lunch. Just lay back with a full stomach and relax.
I watch them thought the day, for several days on end.
Me too.. I have the habbit turning on youtube in the morning. Sometimes forgetting I need to go to work.

Glenn J Panting yeah I’m sure you are perfection in human form
I don’t notice it do I now speak eons
@@glennjpanting2081 You realize accents, dialects, and regional pronunciations exists, genius? I am strangely sure someone from BBC would rip your pronunciation to shreds...
The fact that so many things had to go just right for us to see such a specimen is amazing on it's own.
I enjoy your presentations and documentaries at PBS Eons. Excellent, highly informative and engaging. Please keep up the wonderful work. MORE POWER to your staff.
Outdone yourselves again PBS Eons. Possibly your best video yet 👌
Could you please talk about the Natodomeri lion and other extinct African mega fauna in general. I would love to see this happen.
What's the Natodomeri lion? Haven't heard of it before 😅.
Yeah that would make an utmost excellent video. It seems to me that the pleistocene of Africa is so misrepresented in documentaries. It's always apes and human ancestry, which is absolutely great, but is a little misrepresentive.
@@oof-inator282The Natodomeri lion was a gigantic lion found in Kenyan rocks that dated to about 200,00 years ago. The Natodomeri lion's skull was far beyond the size of modern lions and on par with the largest American lions. It had a basal length of +380mm at minimum and since the condylobasal skull length is normally 25-35mm longer than the basal length an estimation of +410mm for the condylobasal length would be reasonable and thus the greatest skull length would probably be +460mm making it equivalent to the largest cave lions both in America and Europe and possibly even surpassing them. And since it is the only specimen we can consider that it is an average member of its subspecies(if it turns out to be a subspecies) .
@@kraanz The paper, it's free feel free to read it, said that it was 4.5 standard deviations from the modern lion so a freak mutation would be highly unlikely though it cannot be entirely ruled out. Freak mutations that result in massive size deviations are quite rare in nature and especially in mammals.
@@kraanz Sorry if I sounded a little aggressive. I didn't mean to sound mean.
This is by far my favorite fossilized animal to br honest!
Thank you so much for the land acknowledgement at the end! I really appreciate it as an Indigenous person
Mesmerizing. Thank you for this beautiful video!
I literally just watched the curiosity stream documentary on this the other day what a coincidence
Its not a coincidence. They prefer it that way
I will have to go watch it- thanks for the heads up!

Every time a new Eons comes out I’m all like 🤯🤯🤯🤯 I don’t know how many times I can be blown away in one video. 🤯🤯
I love this show, thank you so much for what you do, I never really grew out of loving dinosaurs!
Love this new content. Looking forward to more episodes from you, guys.😁
I respect you acknowledging and honouring Native peoples.
Agreed! It should be far more common.
Yes! Would have been ever better to say it out loud and not only written, but it's good to see that kind of behavior
Thank you for recognizing the names natives use. 😌 We Stan for this!
I live in Alberta and live visiting the Royal Tyrrell museum. I have seen it in person multiple times and it’s so cool!!!!
I read about this fossil in National Geographic, but you guys expanded on info that was there. Amazing!!!!

Irritator. Yes. Really.
There's another beautifully preserved ankylosaur named Zuul.
@@Handles-Suck-CZcams my favorite is the Spinosaurus. Spinosaurids gang!!
Thank you for your recognition of Indigenous Lands, and it's people. I have never seen a science program do such a thing, and you should be commended.
Kudos for shouting out the native peoples on whose land these fossils were discovered!
I envy the people who will live like 100 years from now, when (hopefully) some more such amazing fossils will have been discovered!
They skipped some groups but yeah.
I live nearby and every time I visit the royal Tyrell this fossil has always fascinated me and the preservation of the specimen itself is mindblowing beautiful!
He looks like a giant version of the Horned toads that live around my house!
Totally. Fat lil armored bellies and everything.
If you're Canadian, theres a great David Suzuki episode free on cbc!

Why?
@@deputybluevein93 why not
I really enjoy this channel. Your videos are not only engaging, enjoyable, and informative, but they're also a very welcome distraction from...y'know, Everything. Also, I'm glad there's recognition of Indigenous people and their land at the end.
I went to the royal tyrrell museum and was amazed at how big this fossil is. I'm very glad I was able to find this video and learn more about something I saw so recently.
Im lucky enough to have seen this in person. It is amazing!!!
oh man, must have been a once in a life time experience
My brother went and I told him to watch out for it. He said he didn't see it. Except he had a picture of it in the background of a photo. Doh. I know there are so many cool things to see there it can be overwhelming
Where to see this
I'm from Alberta! This is so incredible wow! Thank you!
Thanks for another awesome episode and for acknowledging the relationship of many indigenous peoples with these lands.

Thanks for the episode. It was a pleasure to watch - as always. How about a full episode on the topic of native americans and the dinosaur fossil hunt? Would that fit the format of this channel?
I especially enjoyed this video, though yall do an incredible job on all of them. Thanks for making such incredibly information rich & entertaining content.
This is so amazing. I hope we'll be able to find more such fossils in the future even though it's unlikely
