A Colorado scientist says he’s “over the moon” after a construction crew in the city of Thornton reportedly stumbled upon a triceratops fossil last week.

After a crew member pointed out that it could be a fossil, paleontologists from the Denver Museum of Nature and Science were called in to investigate.
