A pre-schooler named Wylie Brys was fossil hunting with his father and found a fossilized rib bone in Mansfield, Texas, between Dallas and Fort Worth. The story made headlines. Paleontologists from Southern Methodist University confirmed the find and sent teams to excavate the site where more bones were unearthed. In 2023, the boy from Arlington, Texas, was entered in the Guinness World Records as the youngest discoverer of an unknown species of dinosaur – an armored, land-dwelling creature the size of a pony. Carbon dating placed its age at older than 95 million years.
