Incredible Dinosaur Remains Found in Canadian Oil Sands

Back in 2011, "an unsuspecting excavator operator uncovered [this] historic discovery while digging in an oil sands mine". Six years later and the nodosaur is now fully restored and making is display debut in the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology in Alberta, Canada. Based on research, this new species is a guesstimated 110 million years old herbivore that "walked on four legs...covered in tank-like armor and dotted with spikes for protection". This discovery leads to the question - what else could be down there?
