Description
Taken at the Fossil Museum in Morden, Manitoba.
Our famous “Bruce” is the largest mosasaur in Canada. Bruce is approximately 13 m (43 feet) long and was given the scientific name of Hainosaurus pembinensis by Dr. Elizabeth Nicholls in 1988. Bruce was discovered north of Thornhill, Manitoba in 1974 and the huge skeleton took almost two full field seasons to excavate. The skeleton is reasonably complete, with about 65 – 70% of the fossilized bones recovered.
