Touching a T.rex’s tooth

Review photo 2200 – Greg Nikkel

Tim Tokaryk, a paleontologist with the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, holds one of the teeth that belong to “Scotty” the Tyrannosaurus rex dinosaur as Kaden Cooper and his mother Glenda have a close-up look at it. Tokaryk was the main paleontologist who largely dug up the bones for Scotty near Eastend in southwest Saskatchewan in 1994. He noted that even now there is still a lot of work to do to extract the bones from the rock in which it was found. He was a guest speaker at a reception held Wednesday for the travelling exhibit of the skull of the T.rex, which is on display at the Soo Line Historical Museum from now until the end of November.
