Do you know #Rabindranath Tagore has a dinosaur named after him.

Barapasaurus #tagorei was a 18m long & 7 tonned #dinosaur which walked through #India once. It was the first complete mounted dinosaur skeleton discovered in 1960s in Adilabad district of #India. #BirthAnnivesary

It was named after Tagore because the first year of fieldwork was carried out in the centenary year of Tagore's birth. Since some are asking.
