Lots of Dinosaur-Related Material and News

All sorts of interesting stuff pertaining to dinosaurs and palaeontology (among other -ologies) today from the last few days, collected for your edification. :)

Were the last non-avian dinosaurs thriving, or declining? A study shows patterns were more complex than previously thought:

Lots of interesting dinosaur-related material to ponder, methinks. :)
