Re: [dinosaur] Dinosaur sociality and transfer of symbiotic microbiota



There's... nothing specific to dinosaurs in that paper, other than the painting 
by Davide Bonadonna. The authors could have replaced "dinosaurs" by 
"herbivorous tetrapods" throughout the paper and would hardly have needed to 
change anything to match!

I wonder about the leaf-eating frogs, though. Now where did I put that paper... 
:-(
