I know this might seem like a silly question, but what happens to fossils that were put together in poses that are proven to be inaccurate?

Often, they’re reassembled in more correct postures.  Other times, however, they’re kept in the original poses as a historical artifact.  One example would be the holotype specimen of Ornitholestes, which is on display at the American Natural History Museum in New York City in its original erroneous pose.

Do you have any recommendations for dinosaur-related books? All Yesterdays is already on my wishlist, but I'm not sure if there are any other good/reliable ones.

I genuinely can’t think of any off the top of my head right now – both because All Yesterdays was so game-changing and groundbreaking to me, and because I’m not living in the same place as my dinosaur books right now.

I’d like to open this up to anyone reading.  What are some dinosaur books you guys would recommend, either purely educational or with fictional bents?
