00:00We've called it Enigma Cursor. Enigma means puzzle, of course, and this is in reference
00:28to this sort of complicated naming history of these sorts of dinosaurs. There's been
00:32up to eight or nine different names given to these fragmentary tantalising remains,
00:37and we couldn't figure it out until we found this nice, more complete skeleton. So that's
00:42the Enigma part. Now Cursor means runner, so this is in reference to the dinosaurs, very
00:46long hind limbs and very big feet.
00:50All together, we're naming about one new dinosaur per week around the world. So about 50 to 60
00:58new dinosaurs get a name each year. So it's not super rare to name a new dinosaur, but
01:02it's always exciting to be involved in a new discovery.
