How Did The Huge Dinosaurs Turn Into Light Birds?

图片
  A branch of   Dinosaurs   turned into birds, which is a conclusion recognized by the world scientific community. But under this big framework, there is a question that has always plagued paleontologists: How can a huge dinosaur turn into a light bird? How do they learn to fly? If there is a problem, someone has to solve it. This is exactly what we scientists do. In the past few decades, scientists have put forward many hypotheses, but no matter what, to answer these questions, we must first find fossil evidence, and a large part of our work is to find  Dinosaur Fossils . For those engaged in paleontology, we know through geological maps which areas of the earth's surface may have which types of fossils. Most of the time, in the no man’s land of the Gobi Desert, our daily work is very simple. We go out in the morning and look for the target rock with our eyes open. We may walk 10 kilometers or 20 kilometers a day. This long search is the most important thing for us ...

Dinosaur News-Herbivorous Dinosaurs Are Not Only Vegetarian

图片
  Recently, a study published in "Science Reports" stated that a group of large   Herbivorous Dinosaurs   may not be strictly herbivores as previously thought. The study showed that some herbivorous dinosaurs may feed on crustaceans at certain times of the year. Researchers analyzed the teeth and jaws of large herbivorous dinosaurs and showed that they were able to process fibrous plant food. Accordingly, it is generally assumed that herbivorous dinosaurs are strictly herbivores. In fact, the reconstruction of the feeding behavior of large ornithischians is mainly based on large herbivorous mammals-the two are similar in size. However, there is still a lack of information on specific food choices for ornithischian dinosaurs. Dinosaur Fossils Karen Chin of the University of Colorado at Boulder in Colorado, USA, and colleagues described  Dinosaur  dung fossils from the Keperovitz Formation in southern Utah and discovered that large dinosaurs in the Late Cretaceous...

Dinosaur knowledge|Triceratops

  Triceratops Introduction Triceratops is the easiest kind of dinosaur to be remembered for no other reason, because its physical characteristics fit the name very well. It also often appears in movies, game scenes, and  Dinosaur Theme Parks and is well known to the public. It is also one of the most popular dinosaurs. Age of survival Wandering Triceratops  lived in the late Cretaceous period, between about 68 million years ago and 65 million years ago. It was one of the latest dinosaurs to appear. This time is very close to the extinction of the dinosaurs. Wandering Triceratops Physical characteristics The adult triceratops is a medium-sized quadruped dinosaur with a total length of 6-8 meters, a height of 2.4-2.8 meters, and a weight of 5-10 tons. They have very large head shields and three horns. The head shield can grow to more than 1.5 meters. Triceratops has a horn above the snout and nostrils; and a pair of horns above the eyes, over 80 cm. Behind the skull is a re...

Why Did The Dinosaurs That Have Ruled The Earth For More Than 100 Million Years Not Born Civilization

图片
  Dinosaurs   are a prehistoric animal of the class Sauriformes. They appeared on the earth as early as 220 million years ago. They range from the smallest Compsognathus to the largest fragile Dicavelosaurus. They have a wide variety of species and complex habits. There are meek herbivores, fierce carnivores, and omnivorous dinosaurs. They were originally the overlord at the top of the food chain on the earth, dominating the land and ocean, and survived on the earth for a long time. They disappeared on the earth until they suddenly became extinct 65 million years ago. From then on, mammals began to rise until the count. Millions of years ago, mankind was born and created a brilliant civilization. Why did the dinosaurs that have ruled the earth for more than 100 million years not given birth to civilization? And human beings who have only millions of years of history gave birth to civilization? The reason is actually very simple. The emergence of civilization is shaped by the t...
