When dinosaurs roamed the earth, Southeast Utah was a coastal paradise.  Dinosaurs flourished in this utopia in numbers and variety of species unlike any other place.  This coupled with the effective preservation of the bones in the rock, make Southeast Utah mecca for paleontologists young and old.  Science Moab speaks with John Hankla from the Denver Museum of Nature & Science and a few of his recent students, Jake Percival and Megan Sims.  We talk about life in the field and the work they are doing in the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument.
