Re: This Just In: Hadrosaurs Were Herbivores!



"One of the researchers in Malta this week is Robert T. Bakker, best known for being the first paleontologist to hypothesize that dinosaurs were warm-blooded animals. "

Short shrift to Loris Russell, let alone John Ostrom. Of course Dr. Bakker has been among the most vociferous advocates of dinosaurian endothermy, but that doesn't equate with "first".

Still, Leonardo is an amazing specimen, and I hope they get more and better data out of it.

To paraphrase what a paleontologist friend said to me, how are they visualizing the differences in density of gut contents versus infill of matrix?Â
