Greetings!

Dr. Titus Doing What He Loves

 

Congratulations to GSENM's very own paleontologist, Dr. Alan Titus, who now has a new species of Utah dinosaur named after him: Nasutoceratops titusi! The dino was discovered in the Kaiparowits formation of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.
