Dinosaur Observation - the
Paleontologists came up with the idea while researching a mass tyrannosaur death site discovered seven years ago in southern Utah's Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The Guardian the monument will be restored to its full size. The shocking find in the monument's "Rainbows and Unicorns Quarry" adds to the growing body of evidence that tyrannosaurs were social predators, The Washington Post said. The researchers said a group of four or five Teratophoneus died together during a seasonal flooding event that washed their carcasses into a lake. The bones, which were undisturbed for a long time, slowly moved as a river churned through the field before evaporating. Dinosaur Observation.

Dinosaurs, The Sitcom Before TimeAdvanced Search Some points presented in the paper by Rowe et al.
Rowe et al. Rowe and colleagues presume that multitonne Late Cretaceous high latitude hadrosaurs migrated thousands of straightline kilometers each year to avoid severe arctic winter conditions.
However, movements over such extreme distances are Dinosaur Observation to marine and aerial creatures in the contemporary world, with many traveling many degrees of latitude to experience warm weather year round. This is practical for fliers and especially swimmers because their transport costs per unit distance traveled are modest.

In contrast the longest ranged living land migrators, such Dinosaur Observation gnu and even caribou, do not move a straightline distance of more than a few hundred kilometers Fancy et al. This is probably because animal Dinosaur Observation locomotion is so energy inefficient that continent-spanning movements are too arduous and cost too much to be worth any gain, are excessively dangerous, would involve problems with feeding, and are hindered by geographic obstacles Paul, ; Paul, ; Paul, Specific to arctic source, most of the high latitude remains are those of juveniles too small to keep up with adults on long trips Fiorillo, If so, then the herds were Dinosqur near or on the Alaskan North Slope as the winter ended, and lacked the time to have moved up far from the south.
This is verified by Alaskan hadrosaur bone histology showing they were perennial residents that tolerated the winters, and were a distinct population from more southerly hadrosaurs whose bone microstructure is markedly different Chinsamy et al. Dinosaur Observation is therefore well Dinossaur that polar hadrosaurs were year-round residents Paul, ; Paul, ; Paul, ; Fiorillo, ; Fiorillo et al. It is similarly known that some giant polar southern hemisphere dinosaurs had to tolerate winter and cold and dark because there was no land to the Dinosaur Observation to migrate on Bell and Snively, ; Paul, The possibility that polar hadrosaurs, or any other land animals, migrated thousands of Dinlsaur must be ranked as very low and probably impossible, so such fictional creatures should no longer be modeled as plausible unless supporting fossil evidence is produced.
More Studies Needed To Support Claim
Presuming the polar hadrosaurs were permanent residents, then they rarely or never experienced warm conditions even in the summers, which were cool and cloudy Spicer and Herman, However, giant hadrosaurs lived at all latitudes during a global warm period, so modeling their thermoregulation under high heat loads is valid. Rowe and colleagues Rowe Dinosaur Observation al. What is not clear is whether the captive Elephas maximus they utilized experienced the extreme heat loads that may be tolerated by Dinosaur Observation africana living in their most hyperthermally acute habitats.]
