3. Most of the students in the class believed they had hemoglobin

4. There have been subsequent attempt to explain away the evidence

b) Maybe this is just the heme protein, but not the full hemoglobin

c) It could come from some fungus instead of the T-Rex

5. Evidence it is blood

a) They did tests to rule out hemoglobin but they confirmed earlier tests

b) If what was found was found in something else they would have had no problem in identifying it as hemoglobin

B. Fresh dinosaur bones found in Alaska

2. in 1961 a petroleum scientist found a “half-meter thick bone bed. As the bones were fresh, not per mineralized, he assumed that these were recent bison bones.
