Metre-long bones found in dinosaur dig

A two-week dinosaur dig in south-west Queensland has unearthed more of Australia’s largest dinosaur, Cooper.

The Mackenzie family first found dinosaur bones on their Eromanga property, Plevna Downs, when they were mustering a few years ago.

Stuart Mackenzie says this is the second dig they’ve held, and he says they’ve uncovered bones that are more than a metre long.

“Just that day to day getting up and never knowing what you’re going to find that day,” he says.

“I suppose opal miners go through it as well, it’s just that thrill of discovery and you never know what you are going to find and if in fact you are going to find anything at all.

“But everytime you hit something, it’s pretty exciting stuff.”
