These small ancestors were then really well–equipped to take over the large predator role when the opportunity presented itself when other large predatory dinosaurs– like allosaurs– went extinct. – Steve Brusatte	Found on FOX News 8 years ago
This dinosaur was very small, it was an agile, meat eating creature with sharp teeth, sharp claws, able to move swiftly and grab its prey. We don't quite know what it would have eaten, but possibly small reptiles, small mammals, and possibly other dinosaurs as well. It was a bit like a medium sized dog, very slender, very long-tailed to help it balance as it moved. – Cindy Howells	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
This structure was incredibly surprising, to see a hollow nasal crest outside of dinosaurs and in a mammal that lived so recently is very bizarre. – Ohio University paleontologist Haley O'Brien	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
Taking them into a pro-life, abortion discussion (was) very poor taste and judgment, i would not want my four-year-old going to that forum. He can't fully comprehend that stuff. He likes dinosaurs, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Transformers. – Chris Beck	Found on CNN 8 years ago
The reason why the site is so important is that these footprints were made in a lagoon. We know from the geology this was a lagoon, sauropods were making their foot prints while they were wading in the water … We have three different layers so that is three different time intervals. This is telling us these huge dinosaurs lived or at least moved through these lagoons fairly regularly over time. This was a normal part of their repertoire. – Steve Brusatte	Found on FOX News 8 years ago
A scaled animal looks cooler than a furry or feathered animal. They (film directors) want dinosaurs to be cold-blooded killing machines. – Paleontologist Xu Xing	Found on CNN 8 years ago
It's a key animal from an evolutionary point of view, it's older than crocodiles and dinosaurs; it's an amphibian. So if you look at the modern salamander, its morphology and body shape is very close to the fossils of the first terrestrial vertebrates. So by studying the modern salamander we have a time window to the ancestors of all terrestrial vertebrates, including humans. – Professor Auke Ijspeert	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
Acristavus does not have a crest. The top of its skull is flat. Brachylophosaurus has a large, flat, paddle-shaped crest that completely covers the back of the top of its skull, it is a perfect example of evolution within a single lineage of dinosaurs over millions of years. – Freedman Fowler	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
We think that the crests of dinosaurs were visual signals so that they could recognize members of their own species, and also tell whether the animal was mature or not. – Freedman Fowler	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
I think humans once lived with dinosaurs. – Randall Gabrel	Found on CNN 8 years ago
The fossil record is incomplete enough that if you’re in a new area or a new time, there’s a fair chance that the dinosaurs there are going to be distinct, Steven Jasinski said. For instance, scientists might discover a toe from a brand new species, but such subtle differences may be unrecognizable or impossible to prove. [ T ] hings that we call separate species today would be very, very hard to tell apart based on their skeleton( crow versus raven, for example). – Nick Longrich	Found on FOX News 8 years ago
That means that ideally, we don't sell you water. We rent you water. We take it back, we clean it. We're like a laundry service. Then you can multiply your supply of water many, many times, the water that you drink today is the same water that dinosaurs drank. We don't create or destroy water. It just goes around. So we are using engineering to shorten the loop. – George Madhavan	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
This fossil won't win a beauty contest, but fortunately it preserves enough anatomy that we were able to compare it to other dinosaurs and be confident of its identification. – Christian Sidor	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
It's a failed experiment, it's an evolutionary dead end, over the last 30 years, there were so many discoveries made that demonstrate birds are really descendants of dinosaurs. – Xu Xing	Found on CNN 9 years ago

We're learning about the rules of dinosaur evolution, it shows that the dinosaurs across theropods and sauropodomorphs and even ornithischians tend to follow the same rules in changing their bodies. – Thomas Carr	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
When I saw all the fragmented bones laying on the table, I thought all of them belonged to different dinosaur lineages, that dinosaur is spectacular and bizarre because it combines different features belonging to these three main groups of dinosaurs. – Fernando Novas	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
One of the Holy Grails of dinosaur paleontology is trying to distinguish male and female dinosaurs, i think this is one of those cases that's quite suggestive. I wouldn't say it's necessarily airtight, but it's fairly suggestive of something going with these animals. – Andrew Farke	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
The big picture is, there are independent groups of researchers looking at these dinos and these relationships, and they are independently arriving at the same conclusion, that the diversity of this family of dinosaurs is greater than previously recognized. – Matthew Mossbrucker	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
As Pangea split there were huge volcanic eruptions, about 200 million years ago, and these plunged the world into chaos: environmental destruction and rapid climate swings, the big amphibians couldn't cope well and many species went extinct, but dinosaurs and mammals made it through. – Steve Brusatte	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
Theropods were ready understudies for vacant top predator niches when large-bodied crocs and their relatives bowed out, predatory dinosaurs went on to fill these roles exclusively for the next 135 million years. – Lindsay Zanno	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
