#214: Perseverance: Castaway Chronicles

2022-05-24T10:00:03Z

On Mark’s drive across Canada (the first time), he stopped in Drumheller, Alberta for some dinosaur tourism. It has a truly impressive nodosaur specimen. The nodosaur is a close relative of the ankylosaur, a key difference being the former’s lack of a thagomizer, the club-like appendage at the end of an ankylosaur’s tail. Mark bought a plastic ankylosaur as a souvenir. Its name is Angie.
Perseverance doesn’t have any ankylosaurs or nodosaurs. A shame.
