Dinosaurs Within the last 30-40 years
there has been a revolutionary transformation in our understanding of dinosaur
paleobiology. When you watch a motion picture such as "Jurassic Park" or
"Lost World", you are seeing a modern version of these fascinating animals -
active, agile, and adaptable, as opposed to huge, awkward, lumbering versions of large
reptiles. This page is designed to introduce you to some of the major types of dinosaurs
with passing notes as to some of the new insights into how they lived and, ultimately,
what kind of animals they were. |

Discovering
the World's First Dinosaur Skeleton In the summer of 1858,
Victorian gentleman and fossil hobbyist William Parker Foulke was vacationing in
Haddonfield, New Jersey, when he heard that twenty years previous, workers had found
gigantic bones in a local marl pit. Foulke spent the rest of the summer directing a crew
of hired diggers shin deep in gray slime. Eventually he found the bones (above, right) of
an animal larger than an elephant with structural features of both a lizard and a bird. |

Science Daily Article

News - Science Article 2 Interesting articles both highlighting the discovery of
66-Million-Year-Old Dinosaur heart with X-Ray technology. It is the first ever fossilised
dinosaur heart discovered. This means that dinosaurs, certainly the later ones, were
probably warm-blooded and engaged in active behaviour provides evidence for theory that
dinosaurs were warmblooded. |
