insights about evolutionary patterns, diets and even the range of species

** Dinosaurs were Warm-blooded, New Study Says
If dinosaurs were endothermic (warm-blooded) they would have had the

mammals, and possibly similar quick thinking and complicated behaviours as
well
** South African dinosaur bones fill in gaps
They discovered three new dinosaurs and the fangs of a mysterious
carnivorous dinosaur, probably a fourth new species

but through mitochondrial DNA studies we now know that T-rex is basically a
chicken
