A family of Thescelosaurus emerges from safety to forage in the forests of the Hell Creek Formation, 66 million years ago.
Some unique characteristics of a dinosaur species have been uncovered by examination of an "overlooked” skull fossil located at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences.is the scientific name for this relatively small-sized dinosaur, which roughly translates as "wonderful, overlooked lizard."Interestingly, the findings showcased that it exhibited an uncommon combination of features prevalent in underground species, including an amazing sense of smell.
The researchers also compared these sensory structures to other dinosaurs and their modern-day relatives. “We found that Thescelosaurus heard low frequency sounds best and that the range of frequencies it could hear overlaps with T. rex. More interesting to us was that these particular deficiencies are often associated with animals that spend time underground,” said Lindsay Zanno, associate research professor at NC State and co-author of this new study.
