Washington Gov. Jay Inslee has signed a bill designating the Suciasaurus rex as the official dinosaur of the state. Television station KING5 reports Inslee signed into law House Bill 1020 on Thursday. The new law honors a therapod fossil discovered in 2012 at Sucia Island State Park in Washington's San Juan Islands. The Burke Museum says the fossil belonged to a therapod, a two-legged meat eater like the Velociraptor and the Tyrannosaurus rex. Rep. Melanie Morgan of Parkland had sponsored the bill starting in 2019 at the suggestion of a fourth-grade class at Elmhurst Elementary in the Franklin Pierce School District.
