Dinosaurs By James & Ben
We are going to show you six different dinosaurs in this slide show.
The T,rex • One of the largest dinosaurs that ever lived, Tyrannosaurus rex was a fierce carnivore. Scientists believe this powerful predator could eat up to 500 pounds (230 kilograms) of meat in one bite.
Pterordactyl • Pterodactylusfrom the Greek pterodaktulos, meaning ("winged finger" ) is a genus of pterosaurs, whose members are popularly known as pterodactyls. It was the first to be named and identified as a flying reptile. Its fossil remains have been found primarily in the Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, Germany, dated to the late Jurassic Period (early Tithonian), about 150.8-148.5 million years ago,1 though more fragmentary remains have been identified from elsewhere in Europe and in Africa.
triceratops • Triceratops is a genus of herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaur that lived during the late Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous Period, around 68 to 65.5 million years ago in what is now North America. It was one of the last non-avian dinosaur genera to appear before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.1 The term Triceratops, which literally means "three-horned face”.
Diplodocus • Diplodocus is an extinct genus of diplodocid sauropod dinosaurwhose fossils were first discovered in 1877 by S. W. Williston. The generic name, coined by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1878, is a Neo-Latin term derived from Greek reference to its double-beamed chevron bones located in the underside of the tail. These bones were initially believed to be unique to Diplodocus; however, they have since then been discovered in other members of the diplodocid family and in non-diplodoci sauropods such as Mamenchisaurus.
