Have any of your favorite dinosaurs, etc, been found near you?

To my knowledge, Sheffield hasn't got any Mesozoic age deposits

We have Hylonomus, without Nova Scotia there wouldn't be any dinosaurs!

Jokes aside, the answer is Great Auk. With honourable mentions for Hylonomus and Coelophysis (ichnofossils).

Who needs dinosaurs when Scotland has Akmonistion, Rhizodus, Crassigyrinus, and Elginia?
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

My country only started to take shape during the Oligocene, so sadly no dinosaurs. The only Mesozoic fossils found so far are Jurassic ammonites. The next oldest fossil animal is a Miocene sirenian/dugong.  For "coolness" consolation, we do have Megalodon fossil teeth.

*edit* slaps self for ignorance
We may not have had dinosaurs, but 3 species of Stegodon, a "dwarf" Palaeoloxodon, Megalochelys and H.luzonensis hits several items off the checklist of prehistoric creatures in popular Children's books. I shouldn't complain that my country is fossil starved.

Though, as a pterosaur nut... even a shark-tooth studded fossil of a drowned pterosaur would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, no. I live in Australia and most of my favourite dinos are American.
Taking dinosaurs off this island is the worst idea in the long, sad history of bad ideas, and I'm gonna be there when you learn that.
