Dinosaur news, features and articles

The first-ever near-complete sauropod skull found in Australia is remarkably similar to fossils from South America, which suggests that dinosaurs roamed across ice-free Antarctica.

Paleontologists have confirmed that a rock enclosing a perfectly round agate crystal is actually a titanosaur egg, which was probably smothered by lava after a volcanic eruption 67 million years ago.

New research has found that troodontids, a group of bird-like dinosaurs that lived 74 million years ago, had high enough body temperatures to brood their eggs in communal nests.

Paleontologists have suggested that thin, lizard-like lips concealed the gigantic teeth of T. rex and other predatory dinosaurs, but not all experts are convinced.

A fossilized ankylosaur voice box reveals that these beasts may have sported a far more sophisticated vocal range than scientists originally thought.

By comparing the few known bones of the sauropod Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum with its relatives, experts have extrapolated its tremendous neck length.

Some of the oldest dinosaurs didn't have hollow bones, suggesting that skeletal air sacs evolved independently in three lineages: long-necked sauropodomorphs, meat-eating theropods and pterosaurs.

Scientists have confirmed that Therizinosaurus, the scythe-clawed dinosaur from Jurassic World, couldn't have used its 'useless' gigantic claws to fight because they were too flimsy.

The discovery of a tightly packed nesting ground from the Cretaceous period in India suggests that titanosaurs laid eggs and left their offspring behind.

Unlike their portrayal in Jurassic Park, curved-clawed dinos may have used their sharp appendages to pin and grasp, not slash.
