Wow, I'm really surprised to find out that fossils and paleontology isn't very big in Mexico. When I went to school to get my anthropology degree, we had a lot of professors who traveled back and forth between Central America (mainly central/southern Mexico) and the US to archaeological dig sites, and who also ran various field schools. We even had an archaeology lab with artifacts that were brought back to be processed by students. I honestly just assumed paleontology was just as important over there. Hopefully it'll be recognized more as a prized fossil destination for paleontologists, especially with more great finds like this!
@pedroarjona46184 жыл бұрын
A minor correction, Mexico have several instances interested in research and preservations of fosil remains, but is true that only the three mentioned have permanent presence in Coahuila, and one of them, the federal National Institute of Anthropology and History, have a mandate to preserve, research and educate the public about the archeological, historical, paleontological and contemporary cultural diversity of the State (and the country), so is spread very thin.

I was thinking what could be an indicator of a wholly swamp residing reptile could be the lack of a spiky exterior, since many mosses, vines and various plants would tend to get snagged and coat an animal unless it was relatively smooth. In Ceratopsians, horny bumps would replace long sharp horns and spikes, if an animal were adapted to a swamp existence. edit: ah, I see it mentioned at 15:26 along those lines...

Wouldn’t yehuecauhceratops being found in the same strata as agujaceratops, as well as the size difference plus the apparent more developed horns and protrusions, suggest that yehuecauhceratops is just a young (but not juvenile) agujaceratops? Might the smaller amount of specimens of the latter also suggest that maybe the swamp was a “safer” environment that was used by young agujaceratops until a certain stage of development then venturing out into a different environment? Just a thought as I have read a few papers suggesting that several ceratopsians are actually the same species just at different stage developmentally.

Geology and Geography are the disciplines which have mapped and dated a lot of rock layers as well as outcrops and features the world over. If you know a layer of rock dates to the time of the dinosaurs and there's a lot of outcrops and eroded layers, you are likely to find some bones on the surface which will lead you to their source. That source could be nothing, or it could be a single bone, or it could be an entire skeleton. It's confirmed stratigraphic work, math, planning, luck, and guesswork all rolled into one.

It is sad that Mexican paleontology is not taking seriously. Only fields like Medicine, Archeology, biology and geology are the only ones that are being focused if your going to be a professor, doctor or someone working for the oil industry. But archeology is pretty much the main one as Mexico has a rich history such as if you're studying Olmec, Mayan or the like. Dont get me wrong I love Mesoamerican history. But i wish Paleontology can have more spotlight. Heck Latin American nations like Argentina, Colombia, Chile and even the Caribbean loves taking in paleontology. But mexico is just a different category.
