Three boys discovered a T. rex fossil in North Dakota, which is now being excavated and prepared for display at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. The exhibit, called Discovering Teen Rex, will open on June 21, coinciding with the debut of a documentary about the find. The fossil, estimated to be from a 13 to 15-year-old T. rex, includes a leg, hip, pelvis, tailbones, and part of the skull. The public can watch the year-long process of chipping away the rock encasing the fossil.

Unveiling the Hidden Paradise: The Secret 'Lost Continent' Discovered by Unaware Tourists
Tourists may have been unknowingly visiting the remains of a 'lost continent' called Greater Adria, which broke off from North Africa 250 million years ago and sank under parts of Southern Europe. Only a strip of the continent remains, running from Turin to the heel of Italy. This discovery follows the previous finding of Zealandia, a 'lost' continent that was part of a supercontinent called Gondwana. Zealandia, mostly underwater, was first discovered in 1642 and has been used as an example of how something obvious can take time to uncover.
