The Pompeii of Nebraska
Podcast: The Atlas Obscura PodcastPublished On: Tue Dec 30 2025
Description: In 1971, a paleontologist discovered an animal graveyard in northeastern Nebraska. It was crammed with species that lived in North America millions of years ago: camels, rhinos, and three-toed horses… Excavating this site, two things immediately became clear: something had drawn all these animals to this particular spot – and something very bad had happened to them.
