Hilda mega-bonebed

Restoration of a Centrosaurus herd swimming

The Hilda mega-bonebed is a complex of fourteen probable Centrosaurus apertus bonebeds discovered near the town of Hilda in Alberta, Canada. It was first described in the scientific literature by David Eberth, Donald Brinkman, and Vaia Barkas in 2010 after more than ten years of research. The Hilda mega-bonebed is significant because the behavior of the preserved dinosaurs themselves was the dominant cause of its existence, rather than the stratum's geological history like most bonebeds.[1] It is also Canada's largest bonebed.[2]
