"When I first viewed the fossil, what I experienced was that I was looking at a relative. 900,000 years old, but still a relative. This fossil represents a leader of that line who made a promise to the Creator to be here for us humans. It’s a covenant, and there has to be a reciprocal agreement that the people will take care of the foods and sustain it for future generations, just as our elders did for us. To see a fossil that has been documented to be almost a million years old, almost a millio

It’s not a permanent home. It’s designed so that researchers can get the fossil in and out smoothly.” - Michael Holland, Burke Museum Hell Creek Fo

Burke Ornithology Collections Manager Kevin Epperly manages over 100,000 bird specimens and — in the rare moments of free time — has picked up both 3D photogrammetry and 3D printing. “He is an artist,” Burke Curator of Ornithology Dr. Alejo Rico-Guevara explained as he shared a 3D printed hummingbird head that effectively mimicked the iridescent feathers of a real hummingbird. Epperly uses these skills to assist Rico-Guevara in his research on the beaks of nectar drinking-birds (mostly hummingbi
