Taking advantage of the popularity of dinosaurs, young-Earth creationist (YEC) authors now proclaim in an ever-increasing number of books and DVDs that radiocarbon in dinosaur fossils demonstrates that the dinosaur fossils must be only thousands, not millions, of years old ( Helfinstine & Roth, 2007 Wilson et al., 2007 Lyons & Butt, 2008 Isaacs, 2010a, b Woetzel, 2012 Thomas, 2013, 2014 Clarey, 2015 Institute for Creation Research, 2015).
The recent discovery of radiocarbon in dinosaur fossils has the potential to generate much puzzlement, because radiocarbon has a half-life too short for measurable amounts of original radiocarbon to remain in fossils that are millions of years old.
