Wonderful to see my colleague at the #GrayFossilSite, Laura Emmert, profiled in @nature! There are few specimens that we excavate that are as technically challenging to get out of the ground and put back together as our large herbivores (#rhino #mammut). She does a fantastic job!

A construction site in Tennessee that was once an ancient watering hole yields fossils that give field technician Laura Emmert clues about the rhinoceros, mastodon and other wildlife that congregated there.
