Salmon-eating wolves and predicting dino diets
OK... it's not directly about dinosaurs, but (a) the
video is really cool, and (b) it does illustrate an
excellent example concerning predicting the diet of
extinct taxa. One would not be likely to predict
fish-eating habits of fossil wolves based on their
dentition... :-D I'm *really* wondering now what
dinosaurs such as troodontids, oviraptorosaurs and
ceratopsids were eating... :-)
