Wasn't it really exciting to name a whole new species of dinosaur?
Yeah, yeah, we realised straightaway, but wow, this is something completely new. Naming a new species, you know, not such a big deal, it's quite easy to do.
Really?
The finding, there are...
'Cause for me that very easy thing would be a kind of once in a lifetime. Wow. I've named a new species of a dinosaur, but no?
No, this is a certain huge sways of the tree of life. There's very little work been done. Really, it's quite easy to find new species. We're in a golden age of dinosaur discovery. There's about 50 new species of dinosaurs named every year.
Really?
About 90% of all named dinosaurs have been named since about 1990. If you were to generate a discovery curve of dinosaurs overtime, you would have a curve that shaped like this. And we're currently on the steep upward curve of the graph.
Why do you think there's such a craze for naming new dinosaurs at the moment?
Regions of the world have been explored more. They haven't been really looked at much beforehand. So places like southern South America, much of the central Asia, parts of Africa and Australia, more and more people are going out to those places, finding new dinosaurs and bringing them back.
