The feeding behaviour of Tyrannosaurus rex has been studied extensively. The well known attributes of T. rex (its jaws, legs and overall body design) are often interpreted to be indicative of either a predatory or scavenging lifestyle, and as such the biomechanics, feeding strategies and diet of Tyrannosaurus have been subject to much research ...
Ott & Larson, 2010. Triceratops (/ traɪˈsɛrətɒps / try-SERR-ə-tops; [1] lit. 'three-horned face') is a genus of chasmosaurine ceratopsian dinosaur that lived during the late Maastrichtian age of the Late Cretaceous period, about 68 to 66 million years ago in what is now western North America. It was one of the last-known non-avian ...
Stygivenator molnari. (Paul, 1988a emend Paul, 1990) Olshevsky, 1995. Tyrannosaurus (/ tɪˌrænəˈsɔːrəs, taɪ -/) [a] is a genus of large theropod dinosaur. The type species Tyrannosaurus rex (rex meaning 'king' in Latin), often shortened to T. rex or colloquially T-Rex, is one of the best represented theropods.
As a result, the study determined that the hadrosaur diet probably consisted of leaves, and lacked the bulkier items such as twigs or stems, which might have required a different chewing method and created different wear patterns. [2] However, Purnell said these conclusions were less secure than the more conclusive evidence regarding the motion ...
We recognize a much higher percentage of Tyrannosaurus than previous surveys. Tyrannosaurus equals Edmontosaurus in U3 and in L3 comprises a greater percentage of the large dinosaur fauna as the second-most abundant taxon after Triceratops, followed by Edmontosaurus. This is surprisingly consistent in (1) the two major lag deposits (MOR loc. HC ...
Physiology of dinosaurs. The physiology of dinosaurs has historically been a controversial subject, particularly their thermoregulation. Recently, many new lines of evidence have been brought to bear on dinosaur physiology generally, including not only metabolic systems and thermoregulation, but on respiratory and cardiovascular systems as well.

Birds are avian dinosaurs, and in phylogenetic taxonomy their over 11,000 extant species are included in the group Dinosauria. Dinosaurs are a diverse group of reptiles [note 1] of the clade Dinosauria. They first appeared during the Triassic period, between 243 and 233.23 million years ago (mya), although the exact origin and timing of the ...
