A 65 million year-old mummified Edmontosaurus carcass, complete with fossilized soft tissue structures, has been discovered. This is the fourth time a significant mummified dinosaur body has been unearthed, and this particular one may be the most well-preserved specimen of its kind.

Scientists are working to fully recover the remains, which will take about a year of effort. A CNN report shows a small revealed section of the dinosaur's greenish-black skin, if you click on the picture arrow.
