Over the years, since the first exciting moment of discovery,
Magovern has worked periodically on the block with a skillful
and steady hand to remove the soft surrounding matrix, grain
by grain, with sharp needles made from thin carbide rods.

So far, he has found embryonic bones of two of "Baby
Louie's" siblings that were entombed inside other eggs in
the block. There may still be others yet to be discovered. Apparently,
the hatchling "Baby Louie" emerged from its egg into
a hostile environment that preserved the clutch of fully developed
embryos at that moment in time.
