Some dinosaurs were fussy eaters. Certain herbivorous dinosaurs preferred specific parts of plants, challenging long-standing assumptions about their diets, a study of fossilized dino teeth shows. The ...
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.
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.
Fossilized dinosaur teeth are turning out to be much more than ancient leftovers — they’re helping scientists figure out what these massive animals ate, how they coexisted, and even how far they might ...
This planet once played host to a massive dinosaur that packed more than 500 teeth into its jaws. That might sound like a terrifying prospect at first, but the creature in question wasn't a vicious ...
A previously untapped source of data sheds new light on the climate of the early Earth: fossilized dinosaur teeth show that the atmosphere during the Mesozoic era, between 252 and 66 million years ago ...
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 ...
Sauropod tooth scratches reveal that some dinosaurs migrated seasonally, others ate a wide variety of plants, and climate strongly shaped their diets. Tanzania’s sand-blasted vegetation left ...
