Thanks!

We’ll get back to you soon. In the meantime, did you know these things about dinosaurs??

  • Crocodiles and dinosaurs lived together for nearly 80 million years, but crocodiles are not dinosaurs.

  • The first American dinosaur fossil was discovered by Ferdinand Vandiveer Hayden. The fossilized teeth were collected in 1855 in Montana.

  • Scientists believe that dinosaurs lived for 70 to 100 years. Earlier estimates guessed that sauropods could reach up to 300 years old, but this was later corrected.

  • The longest dinosaur egg ever found was 2 feet long and belonged to the Macroelongatoolithus genus.

  • Almost all carnivorous dinosaurs had hollow bones to make them lighter and more agile. As the only living descendant of the dinosaurs, birds also have hollow bones!

  • Dinosaurs constantly replaced their teeth every couple of months. When old teeth were broken or damaged, new ones would grow and push the broken teeth aside.

  • The largest flying reptile is the Quetzalcoatlus. This type of pterosaur is thought to have had a wingspan of over 40 feet and probably weighed as much as 500 pounds! They had the ability to jump 8 feet vertically to launch themselves into flight.

  • The Stegosaurus has a brain no bigger than a walnut. Their brain was measured to be 3 centimeters and weighed in at just 75 grams which is about the weight of two pennies.

  • The smallest dinosaur species was about the size of a hummingbird. It was originally thought to be an avian dinosaur, but it was actually a small reptile that looked like a bird.

  • The smartest dinosaur only had a brain the size of an avocado pit. The Troodon had the largest brain relative to its body size and was one of the smartest animals of the Mesozoic era.

  • The first dinosaur fossil ever discovered was thought to be a dragon. 3,500 years ago in China the first dinosaur bones were discovered, but they were thought to be dragon teeth!

Take a minute to write an introduction that is short, sweet, and to the point. If you sell something, use this space to describe it in detail and tell us why we should make a purchase. Tap into your creativity. You’ve got this.
