You've heard about the BIG fossils like Scotty the T. rex but there is so much more to fossils than that. Learn about trace fossils, including coprolites (fossilized poop!), dinosaur teeth marks and plant root structures with palaeontologist Jack Milligan.


Jack Milligan recently obtained his MSc in Geology from the University of Saskatchewan and will be pursuing a PhD in the fall at the University of Alberta. His research focuses on interactions between organisms and their environment, as well as how environments affect fossil preservation. His field research has taken him to Saskatchewan, Alberta, Mexico, Argentina, and Spain.
