FIVE-YEAR-OLD DISCOVERS DINOSAUR, NAMES IT AFTER HERSELF, DROPS MIC FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE
On a fossil-hunting trip with her family, five-year-old Daisy Morris found the remains of a previously undiscovered dinosaur, which is now named Vertidraco daisymorrisae. The new dino is not only a previously unknown species, but an unknown genus, making Daisy’s find a really big deal. It’s a pterosaur — a winged flying dino — about the size of a crow, which lived 115 million years ago.
Hell. Yes. You Go, Daisy Morris.
Naming shit after yourself. A true scientist.
