We Found Dinosaur Skin. It Shouldn't Exist

Skin usually doesn't. It rots in a matter of weeks, which is why we almost never get to see what a dinosaur actually looked like up close. Then there are the finds in this video. Four of them, and every one is a strange story on its own. One was dug up in the Gobi in 1923 and then lost in the lab. One had already been chewed on by crocodiles before a river buried it. One still has its last meal sitting inside its ribcage. And one came out of an Alberta mine so complete that we know what colour it was.
