David DeMar Jr. is a research scientist at the University of Washington and the collections manager for the Hell Creek Project at the Burke Museum. He gained attention for his remarkable discovery of 66 million-year-old bird feathers preserved in a coprolite, or fossilized dinosaur dung, while collecting fish fossils in Montana's Hell Creek Formation in 2016. This rare find provides valuable insights into the evolutionary history of birds and their survival during the mass extinction event that marked the end of the Cretaceous period.
