  Amathambo atholakale ayengama-vertebrae enhloko ye-giant, ayengaphezulu kunamanye amathambo e-Alamosurus atholakala kwenye indawo eNyakatho Melika. Ososayensi baye bacacisa ngokuthi ngabe i-dinosaur enkulu yafuduka esuka eNingizimu Melika, nakuba ingakabizi ukuthi kungani beyokwenza kanjalo.

I-bone crested ngemuva kwekhanda layo yakhiqiza umsindo ovuthayo ososayensi bacabanga ukuthi wawusetshenziselwa ukuxhumana, kanye ne-thermoregulation. Kungenzeka futhi ukuthi isetshenziswe njengesiboniso sokuboniswa kwezilwane kanye nobulili. I-Parasaurolophus yayiyindlovukazi ye-bipedal eyayiphila ezindaweni eziphansi ezishisayo.

  I-Tyrannosaur: Isilwane se-Bisti

  Ngo-1997, isisebenzi sokuzithandela se- New Mexico Museum Museum of Natural History neSayensi sathola isayithi lezinto ezindala ngesikhathi kuhlola indawo yeBisti / De-na-zin enyakatho-ntshonalanga yeNew Mexico. I-fossil yayiyi-skeleton eyingxenye ye-tyrannosaur, ilungu le-dinosaurs yokudla inyama ehlanganisa iTrrannosaurus Rex edumile. Ngemuva kokucwaninga nokuhlaziywa, kwafunyanwa ukuthi i-dinosaur yayiyizinhlobo ezintsha nezinhlobo eziye zasiza ukucacisa umlando wokuziphendukela kwemvelo yama-tyrannosaurs.
