Weekly Goose 140 (HH)
Good morning!
Did you know? More than 100 different species of dinosaurs have been found in Canada and almost half of them were discovered in Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta.
Speaking of dinosaurs, Alberta’s Royal Tyrrell Museum just unveiled a massive triceratops skull, which is also the most preserved, nearly complete triceratops skull known from Canada. If you haven’t been to the museum before, now is the time to go, which is why we’ve decided to dedicate the 140th edition of the Weekly Goose to the Dinosaur Capital of the World!
Happy Travels!
