Paleontologists in China have discovered many dozens of nearly complete skeletons of Microraptor, some with traces of feathers and impressions of internal organs and stomach contents. The flight feathers on its arms and hind legs are truly remarkable causing its discoverer, paloentolgust Xu Xing, to call it a "four-winged dinosaur." Although the long flight feathers attached to its hind limbs would make it hard for Microraptor to travel on the ground without risking damage, these two sets of feathers would certainly allow Microraptor to glide easily from tree to tree in the forrest. But recent studies conclude Microraptor could have been a good flyer as well, capable of swooping down to catch prey. It fed on fish, small animals, and insects, all of which it carried and ate in the trees to avoid becoming prey itself.

Known as the greatest dinosaur collector of all time, Barnum Brown helped the American Museum of Natural History establish its world-class fossil collection. Museum Research Associate Lowell Dingus and Chair of the Division of Paleontology Mark Norell recently traced Brown's extraordinary career from a frontier farm to the world's top fossil sites to the halls of the Museum in the book Barnum Brown: The Man Who Discovered Tyrannosaurus Rex.

A toy theater show based on the life of Mary Anning 1799-1847 from Lyme Regis, England. When most children were afraid of monsters Mary sought them out. She had an eye for the inexplicable and in the end her discoveries would change more than she bargained for.

Sinraptor Skull by Tess Kissinger
Amargasaurus has got to be the most bizarre looking of all sauropod dinosaurs. It was also quite small by comparison to its behemoth relatives. It is distinguished in appearance by a double row of tall spikes running down the top of its neck. Considering its small size, these spikes may have been used as a defense against a predator who might want to bite its neck for the the kill. The spikes may have also been used as species recognition and display. Whatever their purpose, these spikes would have made Amargasaurus a very strange sight!

Gertie, the first animated dinosaur, appeared in 1914 for Winsor McCay’s interactive vaudeville act. Winsor would command Gertie to do different tricks, and the spunky animated sauropod would happily oblige.
You may think this is one of the oddest looking dinosaurs you have ever seen, but we reconstructed its shape right from the skeleton of Concavenator! It really does have a triangular hump on its back just before its hips, and a snail-type ridge just behind its hips too. We don't know what the function of these unique spinal humps was, but it has been hypothesized that they could have been for storing fat, or species identification and display, or thermal regulation. Paleontologists originally thought it also had quill-line protofeathers on its forearms, but most now think the marks mean something different because their position on the ulna bone differs from birds.

Carcharodontosaurus and other closely related species like Giganotosaurus belong to the carcharodontid family because their sharp serrated teeth resemble sharks' teeth. You can see how similar their skulls are even though they were found on two different continents.
