What did long-necked dinosaurs eat—and where did they roam to satisfy their hunger? A team of researchers has reconstructed the feeding behavior of sauropods using cutting-edge dental wear analysis.
Scratches on dinosaur teeth could reveal what they really ate. Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has now been used to infer the feeding habits of large theropods, including Allosaurus and T.
A collection of dinosaur teeth hailing back to the Cretaceous and Jurassic periods has given scientists a new window into the world's prehistoric climate. By studying an isotope of oxygen in the ...
When you think of dinosaur teeth, your mind likely jumps to the terrifying, bone-crushing daggers of a Tyrannosaurus rex. However, the title for the most peculiar dental arrangement belongs to a much ...
AUSTIN (KXAN) — Ancient titans once roamed the Earth, consuming plants and animals in order to survive. A new study from the University of Texas is helping paint a picture of ancient life by looking ...
For decades, dinosaurs, especially the Tyrannosaurus rex, have captured the imaginations of the public and paleontologists alike.
Paleontologists have discovered a new species of carnivorous dinosaur, Joaquinraptor casali. The apex predator stood about 22 feet tall, possessed crushing claws, and, perhaps most startling of all, ...
Late in the Cretaceous Period, when tyrannosaurs and their kin were the ruling predators on land, large swimming reptiles ruled the seas. Among them were the plesiosaurs and the mosasaurs. The suffix ...
You are what you eat, it turns out — even if your last meal was 150 million years ago. While the grub itself may be long gone, a record of dinosaurs’ favorite foods has been stowed away in their ...
Picture a Tyrannosaurus rex, that ferocious yet one of the most beloved dinosaurs. Most people will probably imagine a scaly giant with enormous fangs, visible even when its mouth is closed. This is ...
Scratches on dinosaur teeth could reveal what they really ate. For the first time, dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has been used to infer the feeding habits of large theropods, including ...
