Triceratops and other horned dinosaurs had remarkably large nasal cavities compared with most animals. To understand what filled that space, researchers, including a team from the University of Tokyo, ...
Brooklyn has always been a place that celebrates the unusual and the unexpected, and The Bone Museum fits right into that tradition. This is a borough that’s never been afraid to be different, to ...
High-frequency ultrasound significantly reduces the size of the face and modifies the internal bones of the ear in bats.
A team of paleontologists has described a newly identified, giant spinosaurid dinosaur from a skull recovered in the central Sahara Desert. The roughly 95-million-year-old predator carried a ...
Triceratops rerouted its nerves and blood vessels through its nose, turning its massive nasal cavity into a system for cooling the brain ...
Triceratops’ massive head may have been doing more than just showing off those famous horns. Using CT scans and 3D reconstructions of fossil skulls, researchers uncovered a surprisingly complex nasal ...
A paper published in Science describes the discovery of Spinosaurus mirabilis, a new spinosaurid species found in Niger. A 20-person team led by Paul Sereno, Ph.D., Professor of Organismal Biology and ...
For more than a century, paleontologists have been piecing together how the mysterious predator Andrewsarchus is related to ...
The skull of Triceratops looks almost exaggerated, as if someone enlarged the front half without adjusting the rest. Paleontologists have long studied its horns and frill, yet the cavernous nasal ...
Large animals face a constant battle against physics: they generate a lot of body heat that can be difficult to dump. For a dinosaur with a head as large and heavily insulated by bone and keratin as ...
