The sounds could serve to alert other Corythosaurus to the presence of food or a potential threat from a predator. [23] The nasal passages emit low-frequency sounds when Corythosaurus exhaled. The individual crests would produce different sounds, so it is likely that each species of lambeosaurine would have had a unique sound. [37]
Metriacanthosauridae (Greek for "moderately-spined lizards") is an extinct family of allosauroid theropod dinosaurs that lived from the Middle Jurassic to the Early Cretaceous. [3] The family is split into two subgroups: Metriacanthosaurinae, which includes dinosaurs closely related to Metriacanthosaurus , and another group composed of the ...
Velociraptor, like other dromaeosaurids, had a large manus with three elongated digits (fingers), which ended up in strongly curved unguals (claw bones) that were similar in construction and flexibility to the wing bones of modern birds. The second digit was the longest of the three digits present, while the first was shortest.

For millions of years, dinosaurs ruled the land and sky. Back in 2014, a team of scientists led by Nizar Ibrahim of the University of Detroit Mercy discovered a partial fossil of a massive ...
A size comparison diagram between a real-life Velociraptor (green) and a Velociraptor from Jurassic Park (orange) alongside a human (blue) Real Velociraptors measured approximately 2 feet (0.61 m) in height and 6 feet (1.8 m) in length. [9] The franchise, however, depicts the animal as being larger than its real-life counterpart.
Megalosaurus was a theropod, a class of dinosaurs that were ancestrally carnivorous, bipedal and characterized by hollow, bird-like bones and three toes with claws. Think T-Rex and Velociraptor.
Parasaurolophus (/ ˌ p ær ə s ɔː ˈ r ɒ l ə f ə s,-ˌ s ɔːr ə ˈ l oʊ f ə s /; meaning "beside crested lizard" in reference to Saurolophus) [2] is a genus of hadrosaurid "duck-billed" dinosaur that lived in what is now western North America and possibly Asia during the Late Cretaceous period, about 76.9–73.5 million years ago.
