This is just a place for all the latest news, discoveries, theories, artwork or anything else for members on here who are interested in dinosaurs and the prehistoric world.
Nothing spectacular to start with, just a few nice size comparison charts starting with some of the largest sauropod dinosaurs.
These are some of the most accurate you can find on the web.
I don't deny dinosaurs existed but any fossils that prove we came from some animals? Maybe richard dawkin's and show us. He's what I call a fundamentalist.

How depressing that all of the thousands of palaeontologists in the almost two centuries after her death - spending their entire lifetimes gathering mountains of empirical fossil evidence - are thought by many to be doing the 'Devil's Work' and they would rather believe Bronze/Dark age fairy tales than hard scientific evidence.

Really? What else would I expect?
I love the fact there is a dinosaur called the archbishop. Who the hell named them that ??
The drawings are based on scientific information that is known because there's proof that these magnificent creatures existed.
I appreciate that these are concepts that might be rather alien to you.
Very nice try but you cannot wind me up with your bullshit.
Try coming back to this thread when you show some evidence of having a functioning cerebral cortex. ;-)
It is just a nickname until the material is re-described (it was once thought to belong to Brachiosaurs sp).

Read through the thread Never Nude. :kitty:
I have already mentioned the most powerful predator that ever lived.
There are some nice reconstructions, but as a huge shark fan anyway I have lots more to say on this massive species in the future.
Yeah everyone knows it's Godzilla right? Right?
You fell for them. ;-)
Anyway get out of the bloody bed and make me some supper!
Megalodon jaws.

Maybe so but a 20-metre long, 100-ton Meg could have given him a very nasty ankle bite!

For all the 'creationists' she was a pioneering palaeontologist when women were supposed to be 'seen and not heard'.
That is what the Google Doodle on your screen today means.
I wonder if that moron and convicted criminal Kent Hovind will ever get such an honour? ;-)

There are articles in the Telegraph and Guardian today (see http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/google/google-doodle/10845629/Google-doodle-marks-215th-birthday-of-British-palaeontologist-Mary-Anning.html http://www.theguardian.com/science/the-h-word/2013/aug/21/photograph-mary-anning-women-history-geology) and the area that she started collecting fossils in is now known as the Jurassic Coast (see http://jurassiccoast.org/).
Yes - she was a remarkable woman. ^_^

Sadly I never found anything other than a few fragments in my fossil collecting days:(
