the first meat-eating theropod dinosaur ever found in the country
(and of course, they have to mention T. rex on the headline)

I hope they call it Cambriavenator. That would totally mess with the heads of people that don't know Latin ("but it's not from the Cambrian age! I must alert the authorities!").

My daughter would be pleased as well.

Just, please, not Cambriaraptor.

I would have called it Cymrusaurus...but Cambriavenator is pretty smart too.

I figured we could stay proper with Latin. Old-school binomial!
