Triceratops Triceratops was an herbivorous dinosaur, living around 66 million years ago. It lived alongside T.rex in the Hell Creek Formation. Its fossils have been found in Montana and South Dakota. It had a frill on its head to protect it from enemies. The environment which it lived in was swampy with redwood forests and many small trees and also swamps and rivers which was very coastal.

Do you read or want to read the Prehistoric Times ? Then this post is for you. Magazines Prehistoric Times Buy them  here  and do anything it recommends you to do.

Spinosaurus Spinosaurus lived in North Africa about 100 million years ago. It was a piscivore, which means it ate fish. Despite what people used to think about Spinosaurus, it didn't live on land. It was a quadruped and lived in water and it stayed there, swimming for the most of its life. We aren't sure about how Spinosaurus sounded like but, it probably sounded like a crocodile. It looked like a crocodile and behaved like a crocodile, so it had to sound like a crocodile.   

If you are a Jurassic fan, than this is the place for you. Mainly, I am doing this post because of Jurassic Park 's 25th anniversary. Magazines Newsweek Special Edition: Jurassic Park Entertainment Weekly: Jurassic Park Hollywood Spotlight: Jurassic World Stan Winston School Dinosaur Courses, which are  here Jurassic Park Tour If you can, look for more magazines on Jurassic Park/World in the future.

Walking With Dinosaurs was the best documentary of its time with many species of dinosaurs including Allosaurus, T.rex, Eoraptor, Triceratops  and more. I'm not talking about the specials but, I mean just the documentary. So, here is a list of books: Raptor Red  by Robert T. Bakker Obviously, this book goes along the Walking With Dinosaurs  way. It begins with Raptor Red, a female Utahraptor who loses her mate. Then, she goes on to an adventure to find a new mate and she goes to the Pacific. Walking with Dinosaurs: A Natural History  by Tim Haines I forgot but, if you are a WWD fan, and if you have not read this book, I highly encourage you to do so. It has chapters with the name of each episode (6 Chapters) with what was in each episode.

There are a lot of websites about dinosaurs but, they aren't accurate as you think. So, here is a good site that you should look at and follow:  SV-POW! So, what is the science behind these movies? In  Jurassic Park 3 , the Spinosaurus runs on 2 hind legs fighting a T.rex.  In real life, it would swim and it wouldn't fight that way. The Spinosaurus wouldn't roar in real life. Here is a video on that:  Same with the Velociraptor.  It didn't have any feathers and at least it should've had Stage 2 feathers on its arms and body. A new study showed that Velociraptor had feathers based on quill nobs. Here is another video on that:

Apatosaurus Apatosaurus was a massive dinosaur. It lived in the Jurassic in Colorado. It's name means " Deceptive Lizard". The dinosaur used to be called Brontosaurus  but, the name got changed. Since you have to use the name it was first called for a species, Apatosaurus was the name it was called by. Some scientists still think that Brontosaurus  was a different species than Apatosaurus. Here is a video on Apatosaurus: Apatosaurus was featured a lot in pop culture. It is used for shirt designs and it is in various movies and video games. But, are those depictions scientifically accurate? Some people say yes and some say no but, I think the depictions are inaccurate. For example, the Apatosaurus in King Kong  is so inaccurate. It doesn't even look real. I think people should portray them like animals not beasts.

A new dinosaur movie is coming out this summer. It is the sequel of Jurassic World. In the movie, they have to rescue the remaining dinosaur species from Isla Nublar with an extra emphasis on Raptor Blue, the last remaining Raptor on the island. As you can see, the original T.rex from Jurassic Park  is in the movie as well but, there are new dinosaurs too. The new dinosaurs include: Carnotaurus Indoraptor Baryonx Stygimoloch Indoraptor is the new hybrid dinosaur in the movie and it is black with a yellow stripe.

Tyrannosaurus Rex One of the most ferocious dinosaurs was T.rex.  It lived in Montana 66 million years ago. The environment back then was swampy with lots of forests and was coastal. T.rex  didn't roar. In fact, it made a croaking sound. Here is a video: As the video shows, T.rex didn't really make a loud sound. Jurassic Park's T.rex sound was made by combining an elephant, a tiger, and a lot of different animals. You can use a lot of animal sounds (ex. a crocodile, a panther, a puma, a jaguar, a leopard, a lion) to make a T.rex roar. Jurassic Park's T.rex is also inaccurate because it has wrinkly, naked skin instead of feathers. Here is another video that explains that: Finally, to conclude T.rex was about 42 feet long, about 20 feet tall, and about 6 tons.
