Rod Scheetz gave a tour of Brigham Young University’s Museum of Paleontology and showed some of the dinosaur fossils collected by Dr. James A. Jensen and his crews. Dr. Jensen and his crews gathered fossils from locations in Utah, Colorado, Montana, and Wyoming. Dr. Jensen also changed the way that fossils and bones were displayed, by replacing the metal struts originally used to mount the fossils with a system of supports placed inside the bones.
