A fossil collected in Antarctica in 1985 has been confirmed as the continent's first dinosaur bone discovery after spending four decades in storage. The titanosaur vertebra is rewriting what scientists know about how these massive creatures spread across the southern continents.
A fossil collected in Antarctica in 1985 and forgotten in storage for four decades has been confirmed as the continent's first dinosaur bone. The discovery proves that giant titanosaurs once roamed a warmer, greener Antarctica.
A bone collected in 1985 from Antarctica has finally been confirmed as the continent's first dinosaur fossil, revealing new clues about how giant titanosaurs spread across ancient southern lands. The discovery honors a pioneering geologist's hunch from four decades ago.
A dinosaur bone sat unidentified in a British Antarctic Survey drawer for 40 years before scientists realized it was the very first dinosaur fossil ever found in Antarctica. The tail bone belongs to a Titanosaur, one of the largest creatures to ever walk the Earth.
A fossil sitting in a drawer for 40 years has been confirmed as the first dinosaur bone ever found in Antarctica. The discovery proves that giant creatures once roamed the now-frozen continent.
A fossil discovered in 1985 but stored away for decades has finally been identified as Antarctica's first ever dinosaur bone. The find proves that giant long-necked dinosaurs once roamed the now-frozen continent when it was covered in lush forests.
A newly discovered titanosaur fossil in Morocco is rewriting the story of how dinosaurs moved across ancient continents. The find suggests massive herbivores traveled along "dinosaur highways" between Africa and South America during the Late Cretaceous period.
When scientists tried to move a massive titanosaur fossil from Argentina's Patagonia region, the bones were so heavy they cracked the asphalt beneath the transport vehicle. The discovery of Chucarosaurus diripienda reveals new insights into how these 90-million-year-old giants moved across Earth.
Scientists just uncovered a new dinosaur species in Morocco that rewrites what we know about prehistoric connections between continents. The 70-million-year-old titanosaur was a dwarf version of South America's largest land animals ever.
Scientists discovered the first-ever dinosaur egg within another egg, revealing that giant titanosaurs may have shared surprising reproductive traits with modern birds. The rare find in India is rewriting what we know about how dinosaurs brought new life into the world.
University of Liverpool researchers used 3D models to discover how sauropod dinosaurs evolved from small, two-legged creatures into the largest land animals ever, revealing a 200-million-year transformation driven by increasingly longer necks. The findings explain why these gentle giants survived longer than any other dinosaur group.
Scientists in India discovered an extremely rare dinosaur fossil showing one complete egg nested inside another, proving ancient reptiles shared reproductive traits with modern birds. The 68-million-year-old find from Madhya Pradesh rewrites what we know about the dinosaur-bird connection.
Scientists in Thailand discovered a 27-metre sauropod nicknamed "the last titan" that roamed the region before rising seas transformed the landscape forever. The remarkably complete skeleton gives researchers their best window yet into Southeast Asia's prehistoric giants.
Paleontologists in southern France discovered hundreds of intact dinosaur eggs from three different species at a single nesting site dating back 70 million years. The rare find reveals how different dinosaurs shared prime nesting grounds just before the mass extinction that ended their reign.
