boring articles on what dinosaurs

dinosaur bones to make up a complete
skeleton. Along the way you learn
loads about the various dinosaurs,
but
you will be so busy enjoying yourself
that you do not notice the
learning
bit. |
Dinorama
www.nationalgeographic.com/dinorama/frame.html |

China which actually contained the
bones
of a baby theropod. This site tells
the story of that discovery and the
discovery of other dinosaur eggs and
what they can tell us about the
dinosaurs
that laid them. It also tells you how
scientists tease the bones out of
the egg and how the bones can be

dinosaur
they would have become. |

Discovering
Dinosaurs
dinosaurs.eb.com/dinosaurs/index2.html |

| Back
in the early 19th century the first
dinosaur bones came to light.
Scientists
then had very little evidence to work
with to try to imagine the kind
of
world these creatures came from. The
Discovering Dinosaurs site from
Encyclopedia
Britannica, looks at the changing
ideas about dinosaurs, and where they
came from. It takes a look at four
main areas of contention:
environment,
anatomy, physiology and behaviour and
covers all kinds of arguments,
including
the most hotly debated of all: what
killed the dinosaurs? |
Giganotosaurus.com
www.dinodon.com/gig_index.html |
|
| This
site is based on the findings of a dig
in Argentina, where a family of
three Giganotosaurus was found
together. The largest of these
enormous
mammals is a staggering 10 metres
long. The sites shows how the
dinosaur
was dug up, casts taken of all the
bones and then remade and assembled
back in the US. You should also have a
look at the sister site,
www.dinodon.com,
which is full of loads more dinosaur
facts and news on the latest digs. |
