二連浩特市恐(kong)龍博(bo)物(wu)(wu)館(guan)陳列有古(gu)生代(dai)海洋(yang)動物(wu)(wu)化石;新生代(dai)哺乳動物(wu)(wu)化石。“內蒙古(gu)龍”是鐮刀龍類恐(kong)龍的一個新化石。
相關背景
地(di)(di)處內蒙(meng)古北部的(de)二連盆地(di)(di)埋藏(zang)著十分豐富的(de)恐(kong)龍(long)等(deng)脊(ji)椎(zhui)動(dong)物化(hua)石,被古生(sheng)物學(xue)家(jia)稱為“恐(kong)龍(long)墓地(di)(di)”。這里是亞洲最早發現恐(kong)龍(long)化(hua)石的(de)地(di)(di)區之一,恐(kong)龍(long)化(hua)石品種(zhong)繁多,其(qi)中(zhong)(zhong)的(de)白(bai)堊紀(ji)恐(kong)龍(long)化(hua)石代表著全球恐(kong)龍(long)活(huo)動(dong)最晚(wan)期(qi)的(de)生(sheng)物群特征,因此科研價值極高。1998年內蒙(meng)古在這里建立了二連盆地(di)(di)--查干諾爾(er)恐(kong)龍(long)化(hua)石自然保護區。兩具(ju)白(bai)堊紀(ji)恐(kong)龍(long)裝架栩栩如(ru)生(sheng),至今已接(jie)待了數以萬計的(de)中(zhong)(zhong)外游客(ke),不少人留下了“恐(kong)龍(long)之鄉(xiang),名不虛傳”的(de)贊嘆。
恐(kong)(kong)(kong)(kong)龍(long)化(hua)(hua)石(shi)重大(da)發(fa)(fa)現(xian)的(de)(de)新(xin)聞接連(lian)從這(zhe)個盆地傳出。2000年8月(yue),內蒙古(gu)博物(wu)館的(de)(de)專(zhuan)家發(fa)(fa)現(xian)了大(da)面積(ji)的(de)(de)恐(kong)(kong)(kong)(kong)龍(long)骨骼化(hua)(hua)石(shi)埋(mai)藏層,被世界著名(ming)恐(kong)(kong)(kong)(kong)龍(long)專(zhuan)家、中(zhong)國科(ke)學(xue)(xue)(xue)院研究員(yuan)董枝明稱為(wei)“在古(gu)生(sheng)物(wu)化(hua)(hua)石(shi)發(fa)(fa)掘史上也堪稱難得一(yi)遇”。后中(zhong)國的(de)(de)古(gu)生(sheng)物(wu)學(xue)(xue)(xue)家又向(xiang)外界宣布(bu),二連(lian)盆地發(fa)(fa)現(xian)鐮(lian)刀龍(long)類恐(kong)(kong)(kong)(kong)龍(long)的(de)(de)一(yi)個新(xin)化(hua)(hua)石(shi),專(zhuan)家給命名(ming)為(wei)“內蒙古(gu)龍(long)”。發(fa)(fa)現(xian)這(zhe)些恐(kong)(kong)(kong)(kong)龍(long)化(hua)(hua)石(shi)的(de)(de)專(zhuan)家們興(xing)奮(fen)地認為(wei),二連(lian)盆地恐(kong)(kong)(kong)(kong)龍(long)化(hua)(hua)石(shi)區(qu)在世紀之交(jiao)發(fa)(fa)現(xian)豐富的(de)(de)恐(kong)(kong)(kong)(kong)龍(long)化(hua)(hua)石(shi),對于提(ti)(ti)高正在進行西部大(da)開(kai)發(fa)(fa)的(de)(de)內蒙古(gu)的(de)(de)知(zhi)名(ming)度(du),以及對科(ke)學(xue)(xue)(xue)文(wen)化(hua)(hua)知(zhi)識的(de)(de)普及,都具有積(ji)極(ji)的(de)(de)推(tui)動(dong)作用。他們建(jian)議,在科(ke)學(xue)(xue)(xue)發(fa)(fa)掘、研究和保(bao)護的(de)(de)前提(ti)(ti)下,應盡快籌(chou)建(jian)一(yi)座遺址博物(wu)館,并(bing)借此推(tui)動(dong)自治區(qu)旅游業和中(zhong)外文(wen)化(hua)(hua)交(jiao)流與合作事(shi)業的(de)(de)發(fa)(fa)展。據自治區(qu)政府(fu)傳出的(de)(de)信息(xi),二連(lian)盆地恐(kong)(kong)(kong)(kong)龍(long)遺址博物(wu)館工(gong)程已(yi)逐步開(kai)始啟動(dong)。
