Batch of Dinosaur Eggs Found

UPDATE: The so called "dinosaur eggs" whose find was announced by Chechen scientists in April, have since turned out to be a pile of stones reports RIA Novosti on Wednesday, citing the Senior Research Fellow of the Paleontological Institute of the Russian Science Academy, Kirill Es'kov.
"We have done research and have found that these are not dinosaur eggs - eggs cannot be that size. The samples have geologic origins and there are no continental deposits of such age in Chechnya."

40 counted so far at construction site; paleontologists to determine species that laid them

Geologists in Russia's volatile Chechnya region have discovered what they believe to be fossilized dinosaur eggs laid by one of the huge extinct reptiles that roamed the Earth more than 60 million years ago.
"We've found about 40 eggs so far, the exact number has not been established," said Said-Emin Dzhabrailov, a geologist at the Chechen State University.
"There could be many more laying under the ground."
The find was uncovered when a construction crew was blasting through a hillside to build a road near the region's border with former Soviet Georgia in the Caucasus Mountains.
A team of geologists stumbled across the smooth, oval rock-like forms, which range from 25 cm to one meter coincidentally on a recent trip to the area, said Dzhabrailov.
He said paleontologists were needed to determine which species of dinosaur had laid them.
