Dakota is one of the best-preserved fossilised dinosaurs ever found – possibly the most important and rarest palaentological discovery ever!

Imagine finding the body of a dinosaur so well-preserved that you can run your hands over its bumpy, scaly skin! This fascinating look at the discovery and excavation of this amazingly well-preserved dinosaur begins with the story of the dinomummy’s perilous life– walk in his footsteps on the floodplains of prehistoric North America, with Triceratops and Ankylosaurus, feeding and migrating and fleeing from the king of all predators, Tyrannosaurus Rex!

Millions of years later a young dinohunter called Tyler and palaeontologist Dr Phillip Lars Manning find his tomb and begin an incredible excavation to unlock the dinomummy’s secrets. What did Dakota look like? Why did he die? How did his body survive for millions of years? The incredible answers, and stunning photographs and artwork, build a detailed picture of this very special dinosaur’s life…and death.
