Professor Kobayashi Yoshitsugu Hokkaido University Museum is taking on a crowdfunding project called "The Cutting Edge of Dinosaur Research: Searching for Traces of Dinosaurs that Lived in Frozen Lands."

 

Professor Kobayashi of Hokkaido University Museum has discovered many new species, and in excavations in Asia and mainland North America, he has found evidence that large herbivorous dinosaurs migrated between the two continents. He plans to continue a large-scale dinosaur fossil excavation project in the Alaskan Arctic after 2025 to search for traces of dinosaurs that migrated between continents and to understand how they survived in cold regions.

Through crowdfunding, we hope that you will become part of the team and oversee the survey, gain a broad understanding of the latest technology in dinosaur excavation surveys, and realize the importance of science in knowing the future by knowing the past.
