The hybrid was created by combining the genetic traits of a cuttlefish, a snake, a tyrannosaurus and a velociraptor, etc.

The first remains were found in 1913 in the formation now known as Dynosore Park, Alberta, Canada.

Scientists have found fossils of Corythosaurus, which has remnants of coniferous needles and twigs in the stomach area. Therefore, paleontologists believe that Corythosaurus, like other lizards similar to it, was

Due to its strong and long legs, Dilophosaurus could run at speeds up to 55 km/h.

Carnotaurus is the only known carnivorous dinosaur with horns. The protrusions of bone above the eyes probably supported even longer structures made of keratin. And also Carnotaurus, my favorite dean.

The velociraptor reached two meters in length and 0.5 meters in height, and weighed about 20 kg.

Outwardly, the gallimim looked very much like an ostrich: a small head, large round eyes, a toothless beak, a long neck, short front and long hind legs, and a long tail.

The animal's head occupied a third of its entire body. In toddlers, its length reached 1 meter, in teenagers — one and a half. The head length of the largest specimen found was 2.4 meters.

Gigantosaurus had a keen sense of smell and vision. He could smell his victims (or carrion) from several kilometers away.

The body length of the uerchosaurus reached 7 meters, height — up to 3 meters, weight — up to 4 tons.

A typical adult reached 9 meters in length, some older individuals could exceed 10 meters.

Initially, Quetzalcoatl was depicted as a rattlesnake with quetzal feathers, but after certain events he acquired a new look — a bearded man in a mask with huge lips.

The vertebrae of this animal had extensive cavities filled with air sacs, which lightened the weight of the bones.

A distinctive feature was the crest on the back of his head. When the lizard closed its nasal valves and exhaled into its nose, the air entered the comb and made a humming sound. These sounds could serve as a means of communication for the couple.

Allosaurus moved on large and powerful hind legs, while its forelimbs were relatively small, they had three large curved claws.

Megalosaurus is the first extinct dinosaur discovered in the world. It was scientifically described in 1824 by William Buckland, who mistook it for a lizard.

Ceratosaurus's jaws were great for biting and holding prey until it weakened. The longest teeth were in the upper jaw.

The stegosaurus was equipped with an unusually small brain, comparable to that of a modern golden retriever.

The indoraptor reached a length of 7.3 meters. His height at the hips was 2.4 meters, and his height to the head on two paws was 3.1 meters.

Despite its size, Brachiosaurus could swim.

Chasmosaurus was a medium–sized ceratops: its length was 4.3—4.8 meters, and its approximate weight was 1.5–2 tons.

The frequency range at which ankylosaurus could hear ranged from 300 to 3,000 hertz. This is about the same range in which modern crocodiles hear.

The bite force of Deinonychus ranged from 4,100 to 8,200 newtons, which is more than that of living predatory mammals, and is equivalent to the bite of an alligator of the same size.

Minmi is the first fossil armored dinosaur found in the Southern Hemisphere.

Pteranodons lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 80-70 million years ago, in North America, Europe, and Asia.

The name was given because of the resemblance of the fossil to dragons and the mention of the fabulous Hogwarts School of magic from the works of J. K. Rowling.

Traditionally, Pachycephalosaurus was considered herbivorous, but the discovery of its skull with preserved back teeth showed that this dinosaur was omnivorous, with its diet varying from season to season.

Saltasaurus was a small animal compared to many other titanosaurs. According to Gregory Paul's 2010 estimate, this dinosaur reached 8.5 m in length with a mass of 2.5 tons.

Despite the fact that oviraptors stole other people's eggs, they themselves were caring parents. They did not leave their nest until the cubs appeared.

The Uranosaurus had relatively weak jaws, but it didn't care. The wide keratin beak easily tore off food, and 88 cheek teeth formed 4 solid plates for grinding.
