In dinosaur news this week:

  • New "giant theropod material" may be a third carcharodontosaurid in Cretaceous Morocco or more support for the dinosaur Sauroniops

  • A new massopodan sauropodomorph Tuebingosaurus maierfritzorum has been named from Germany
  • A new juvenile T. rex was recently fund and is on display in Colorado
  • A new study shows that many dinosaurs were endothermic ("warm blooded"), while others were ectothermic ("cold blooded")
  • Shortly before hatching, a bird's pelvis looks the same as a dinosaur’s pelvis
  • Not all dinosaurs that lived on islands may have been small
  • Scientists identified the first record of dinosaur tracks in what is now Palestine and published a nice set of criteria for identifying tracks
