1. Identify its genus.
2. Identify what period it lived in.
3. Suppose the element Spookium (the element of surprise! ) has a half life of 75 million years. If there are 3 grams of Spookium in this specimen currently, how many grams (roughly) would there be when this specimen became extinct?
4. (This isn't part of the rules, so you don't have to do this one) What continent(s) was this specimen found on?
