A DINOSAUR with a VENOMOUS bite?

A DINOSAUR with a VENOMOUS bite?

A new avian dinosaur was discovered back in 1999 but its most deadly attribute was not discovered till the last 7 years. Sinornithosaurus was only around 2.5 feet tall and was not just covered with feathers with a large claw on the inner toe like its close raptor cousins. It had the bone structure and perfect amount of coverage, secondary and primary feathers to help it glide throughout the tries of the early Cretaceous period, 123 million years ago. It did not have the prope

NEW Three Horned Monsters!

NEW Three Horned Monsters!

Triceratops has been a favorite of millions of dinosaur lovers around the world young and old. It was the largest member of the ceratopsian family ever since it was discovered by Charles Marsh in the great "Bone Wars" in 1887 at 28 ft long, 16 ft high and 26,000 pounds!. Notice that I said was the biggest ceratopsian? Recently two animals have been discovered that are even larger than the legendary Triceratops! Eotriceratops and Titanoceratops. Both of these animals closely c

The Extinction of the giant shark from hell!

The Extinction of the giant shark from hell!

We have all heard of the giant shark from hell, Megalodon. 60 feet long with 6 inch cerated teeth and the strongest bite force of all time! Don't worry, it lived approximately 23 to 2.6 million years ago, during the Cenozoic Era. Along with a vast variety of megafauna marine life. All vanishing around 2.5 million years ago. The big news released on Monday of this week is an explanation as to why these giant marine animals and sea birds disappeared and we are left with todays

A real life dragon!

A real life dragon!

Its name came from the popular Harry Potter book's school of magic, called Drakorex Hogwarsia and its no wonder we thought dragons were real up until the 1900s when you have an animal that looked like this. It looked like something right out of midieval text. Drakorex had 3 inch spikes from its snout to 6 inch spikes on the back of its head. It was a very fast little dinosaur that stood around an average mans hip. Its thick crocodile like scales covered its body like armor. F

Largest land animal in earths history to date!

Largest land animal in earths history to date!

Close your eyes and think of that long neck dinosaur that you thought was the biggest thing on earth growing up... now get ready to replace that dinosaur with a new one. Two years ago a new skeleton was discovered by a farmer in Argentina and then excavated by a group of paleontologists BBC's David Attenborough. Its part of the elite group of largest sauropod dinosaurs on earth called Titanosaurs and this one has been dubbed, "The Titanosaur" and has become its name . Dinosau

#JW2 Official Logo and Poster

The new logo for the upcoming Jurassic World 2 movie has been released! The movie will be titled Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Taking a look at this poster, I would think that there is going to be a good amount of destruction with the falling ash and fire. The logo itself is broken up a bit as well. The plot for the movie is geared more toward weaponized dinosaurs...Which by the way, can they just make a Dino-Rider movie already? I have only been waiting my whole life for t

Dinosaur Killer

Dinosaur Killer

There were animals that could kill something as large as a T-Rex. Since my last topic was on the bite force of T-Rex I thought I might continue on the subject with one of the few species that even dinosaurs feared. Between 112-70 million years ago, crocodilians were thriving in all shapes and sizes. Among the biggest were Sarcosuchus and Deinosuchus. When fully grown individuals estimated to have reached up to 11–12 m (36–39 ft) in total length and 8 tonnes (8.8 short tons) i

Insane bite force!

Insane bite force!

It is no secret that T-Rex had a powerful bite, but evidence has recently shown that it was even stronger than previously thought. We are talking close to 14,000 pounds of force! That's about how much the Tyrannosaurus weighs. That, without a doubt, shows that the T-Rex had the most powerful bite force of any terrestrial animal in earths history that we know of. The jaw muscles of the T-Rex continued to grow as the animal matured at a rapid rate. Meaning the older the animal

A form of dinosaur sonar?

A form of dinosaur sonar?

It has come to light that some Cretaceous animals like Spinosaurus, Baryonyx and Neovenator salerii had a very sensitive and complex neuroanatomy in the rostrum (in the oral and nasal region). Some similar to modern day crocodiles. Apparently these animals snouts were very in tune to their aquatic surroundings. The sensory pits and neural canals within the snouts of these watery beasts were able to detect the slightest change in temperature, shift of current or something swim

A FOUR FOOT LONG STULL!

A FOUR FOOT LONG STULL!

A Four Foot Long Skull! This T. rex “is definitely one of the most significant specimens yet found, and because of its size, is sure to yield important information about the growth and possible eating habits of these magnificent animals,” paleontologist Jack Horner, who founded the Hell Creek Project that uncovered the specimen, explained in a UW press release. Now headed by UW vertebrate paleontologist Greg Wilson, the project has discovered 11 T. Rex fossils so far. Montana
