‘Most Intact Dinosaur for 100 Years’ Discovered on Isle of Wight

Sandra Gobblington-Bonesmith was discovered by local fossil hunter Ian Falcon and is reported to be the most complete and well preserved example of a dinosaur discovered in the UK for 100 years.

The specimen is comprised of 206 bones, all of which have been surprisingly well preserved. The dinosaur, now dubbed Geriatrix Falconus, is suspected to be an example of the Critisaurus family. The creatures were a pack dinosaur that roamed the Isle of Wight countryside 125 million years ago delivering passive aggressive comments to younger dinosaurs and feasting off the resulting uncomfortable silences.

Dr Donald Flangely of Portsmouth Historical Centre had this to say:

‘She is a fascinating specimen no? The wrinkles display such contempt for other dinosaur species, she must have spent her entire life frowning. The leathery texture shows that the skin is hardened by millennia of exposure to the sun. Quite beautiful.’

Sandra’s intact body will be on display for visitors to see at Dinosaur Isle from 5th August until she manages to escape. Visitors are reminded she can only handle one milky tea and a single egg and cress finger sandwich per hour.
