The study of palaeontology has long provided a window into the dynamic evolutionary history of dinosaurs and their avian descendants. Recent research has uncovered intricate details regarding the ...

What do humans have in common with the dinosaurs that trampled through ancient forests? It turns out that both may have a surprising impact on the size of seeds in the fruits growing around them. When ...

A small fossil jaw rests in Argentina’s national natural science museum in Buenos Aires. The fossil, only six inches long, ...

The mystery behind the origins of the dinosaurs may have been given a new twist, with a modeling study suggesting they may have evolved in what is today equatorial Africa and South America. This would ...

The remains of the earliest dinosaurs may lie undiscovered in the Amazon and other equatorial regions of South America and Africa, suggests a new study led by UCL (University College London) ...

Where are all the east coast dinosaurs? Where are all the east coast dinosaurs? Why don’t we find famous species like Triceratops in Central Park? Turns out, evolution and geology came together to ...

A groundbreaking dinosaur discovery with just two claws is challenging everything we thought we knew about evolution. This unexpected creature is forcing paleontologists to rethink the development of ...

Rhinos’ evolutionary relationships became a little clearer with the sequencing of the oldest proteins yet. Researchers have described proteins that they say are among the most ancient ever sequenced.

Chris Doughty, an associate professor in NAU's informatics department, was writing a paper for a conference and had the idea to test a theory about sauropods, forests and fruit. Doughty created a ...

Researchers have described proteins that they say are among the most ancient ever sequenced. Two teams, which analysed molecules from extinct relatives of rhinos and other large mammals, have pushed ...
