It seems we wrong about the dinosaurs going extinct 65 million years ago as this is a 60 million year old triceratops. Alos get this the scientist who found the trike got fired for being a creationist!

Nice find! Why he got fired is kind of depressing.

Interesting I wonder how long dinosaurs really lived

It is. They probably died out soon after, because otherwise how would the mammals rise to power?

Not every dinosaur was wiped off the face of the earth when the asteroid hit. It has been proposed that some hadrosaur species survived the KT even, and lived for a thousand or so more years. Which is truly fascinating. It's quite apparent they didn't survive for long, otherwise our fuzzy little ancestors would have become dino chow in a second.

Nature doesn't deceive us; it is we who deceive ourselves.

id say its a lie, and thats wy they whant to fire them,its imposible that dinos lived a cuple thousand years ago, they need more oxigen than the earth in the present has, mroe food than they can get and if they lived for so long they must of evolved into smaller species

CatZilla they fired him because he was a creationist. They didn't live a couple thousand years ago. The tussue/ fossils carbendate to 60 million years old, which means dinosaurs didn't go extinct from the KT extinction.

CatZilla, it's a HUGE discovery, it means evreything that we thought about how and when dinosaurs went extinct was wrong! And we have a first soft tissue from a triceratops!

My understanding, Is that he put foreward something along the lines as,

 

"Dinosaurs roamed the Earth Blah balh years ago, Because God would not allow his creation to die--"

 

Something along those lines. 

 

I'm not super Religous, But I do Believe everyone should have their own Belief, Something to fall back on in Times of Trouble. It should, However, Not be used to back something Scientific. Sure, It can be, But I;m not going to go too In-depth with Religon, As it's such a touchy subject, Kinda like Rex Vs Spino. 

 

 

This is rather Stupid, That a man with that many degrees, Put foreward it's "Creationism" Rather then Science. It's good he's backing his religon, But don't bring it into a place of Science. 

 

I side with the Institute on this one.

Life cannot be contained, it breaks walls, crashes through barriers sometimes painfully, but uh... Life uh, finds a way

I agree with pretty much everything you just said Paden, and yes, religion is touchy around here.

nice
so this could means that the dinosaur cryptid around the world could be real

Uhm, T. rex white, I'm sorry to inform you that 60-million years ago, is still a long freaking time ago.

Anyway, onto the article itself. It doesn't surprise me in the slightest that a handful of dinosaur populations would have survived the KT-extinction. What do you think birds are? Although, I do not believe that the proposed animal is a true triceratops. Ceratopsian, yes. Triceratops? Possibly an ancestor. If it is a real triceratops though... Damn.

EDIT:

Decided to look this up. Is this the article you were speaking about?

EDIT MK2:

Ignore that last one, I found it:

Let's no get to cocky, gys. We've foud a T-rex will soft tissue beore and that didn't disprove an old earth. Here's the article by the way:http://www.livescience.com/41537-t-rex-soft-tissue.html

 

I'm pretty sure it's a similar thing with the Trike. And, I don't think he was fired just for being a creationist. I think it was because he was trying to put it into an institute dedicated to science. Like Paden said, you're free to have whatever religion you want, just don't put it into science.

Just want to clarify that I agree with noah and paden.

Aparently there is some process for preserving soft tissue in fossils from many tens of millions of years that we have not thought about yet which is very facinating and brings forth new possibilities. Who knows what the the find of tomorrow will bring.
