Re: Tyrannosaur eggs amd brooding - more nomenclature



>nest, what was unusual about the Tyrannisauridae and Troodontidae chicks

A tyrannosaur "chick".  A Tyrannosaurus Rex "chick".  Hmmm.  Maybe it's
just me but I don't think this usage really clicks, you know?  "Hatchling",
that I might buy, but I don't think an 8-ton predator would have a "chick".

:)  Maybe it's just me.  It frequently is...
