Dinosaur skull found in New Mexico is a cousin of T. rex — and even bigger, experts say. Dig at ancient cemetery reveals colorful masks and artifacts. See the finds from Egypt.
A study on the diversification of non-avian dinosaurs, inferred from available dinosaur phylogenies, is published by Allen et al. (2024), who find it impossible to decisively conclude whether dinosaurs experienced a decline in diversity before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event on the basis of available data, noting the impact of the ...
The dinosaur lived 150 million years ago in the late Jurassic period, making it millions of years older than the terrifying Tyrannosaurus rex that roamed the Earth some 66 million to 68 million ...
