The discovery of a very posterior cervical bone indicates the presence of diplodocine sauropods in Oklahoma.
Fossil BYU 12613 likely belongs to either Kaatedocus or Diplodocus, providing insights into dinosaur morphology.
The combination of original fossil findings and 3D prints enhances educational outreach and public engagement.
Notable field activities were highlighted with images from the Tate trip, fostering community interest in paleontology.
