McGill University students and paleontologists have documented Saskatchewan’s first known fossil specimens of centrosaurus, a horned dinosaur species, along the South Saskatchewan River. Researchers say it gives a peek into what the province looked like more than 75 million years ago.

Centrosaurus was a herbivorous dinosaur with one horn on its snout and spines around the back of its neck frill.

Researchers say the discovery site at Saskatchewan Landing Provincial Park, dubbed the Lake Diefenbaker Bonebed,  reveals an environment unlike any previously documented in Canada.
