Giant dinosaur skeletonMailOnline

The most complete dinosaur fossil ever uncovered in Mississippi remains 85 percent buried since its 2007 discovery.
Paleontologists have confirmed that the specimen was once a living hadrosaur: a family of vegetarian, duck-billed dinosaurs that existed over 82 million years ago .
Researchers are now turning to a 3D method of forensic bone analysis to solve the riddle before it's even fully unearthed.
State official James Starnes , with the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality's Office of Geology , said that the 2007 discovery of this hadrosaur in near Booneville was just 'incredibly unusual' 'We just don't have a lot of skeletons. We have pieces and parts, but not a skeleton,' he said.
