What if all of the dinosaur bones disappeared tomorrow - how would we know that dinosaurs existed and how they behaved? Fortunately, dinosaurs left tracks, nests and many other traces during their 165-million-year history.

Join Emory paleontologist Tony Martin, author of the newly released, "Dinosaurs without Bones: Dinosaur Lives as Revealed by Their Trace Fossils," (Pegasus Books (http://pegasusbooks.us/books/dinosaurs-without-bones)) as he shares his insights into dinosaur trace fossils and the lasting marks these animals left on our modern world. A book signing will immediately follow the lecture.

This lecture is made possible by a generous gift from Marty and John Gillin in honor of Carter and Hampton Morris and is part of Adventures in Science Day (http://fernbankmuseum.org/calendar-of-events/adventures-in-science/), presented in conjunction with the Atlanta Science Festival (http://atlantasciencefestival.org/) (March 22-29).
