The newly opened Edelman Fossil Park & Museum in New Jersey is built upon a site of historic significance, where a mass death of sea creatures occurred 66 million years ago, near the time of the dinosaurs' extinction. With the opening of the museum, Dr. Kenneth Lacovara, a notable paleontologist known for discovering the massive Dreadnoughtus dinosaur, aims to educate the public on the connections between this ancient event and today's ongoing climate crisis. This project represents a decade of dedicated work to explore paleontology's relevance to contemporary environmental issues.
The Edelman Fossil Park & Museum in Mantua, N.J., is a significant site for studying prehistoric mass extinctions and the implications for today's climate crisis.
Dr. Kenneth Lacovara emphasizes that the fossils collected here not only tell us about the past but also serve as a warning about the present biodiversity crisis.
