We are facing a global decline of large vertebrates, here we have a very positive case that clearly shows that we can pull it together, by diverse conservation and social needs. – Seu Preto	Found on CNN 3 years ago
It’s important to recognize that there’s nothing mystical about the pineal and parapineal organs, they can sense light and play a role in the endocrine system. However, some of the abilities conferred by the pineal are really quite extraordinary. For instance, some lower vertebrates can sense the polarization of light with the third eye and use this to orient themselves geographically. – Krister Smith	Found on FOX News 6 years ago

So if you look at the modern salamander, its morphology and body shape is very close to the fossils of the first terrestrial vertebrates.

Data collection concerning end-Cretaceous dinosaurs happened to start at about the same time in both Europe and North America – around the middle of the 19th century, it is only by chance (a combination between mainly better rock availability and more human effort poured into this line of research) that the North American fossil record grew more rapidly and soon become the best one in the world for that particular time period. As such, it captured attention and was used as a template to understand end-Cretaceous extinction. The data was harder to gather in other continents, including Europe, and the resolution of the European fossil record is still far from that coming from North America. But its growth is spectacular (we know probably twice as much about late Cretaceous fossil vertebrates from Europe then we knew like 20 years ago), and that is due to the activity of a large number of mainly young researchers working all across Europe. – Zoltan Csiki-Sava	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
There are over 60,000 species of living jawed vertebrates, and they encompass pretty much everything you can think of [with a backbone] that lives on land or in the sea, but we don't really know what they looked like when they split. – Sam Giles	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
It is not easy to study dinosaur sounds, vertebrates usually vocalize with soft tissues, and soft tissues rarely preserve in the fossil record. – Lindsey Zanno	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
Brave men are all vertebrates they have their softness on the surface and their toughness in the middle. – G. K. Chesterton	added by anonymous 14 years ago
