Uncovering Dinosaur Behavior: What They Did and How We Know
By
David Hone
How do scientists figure out how dinosaurs actually behaved, when behavior doesn’t fossilize? In Uncovering Dinosaur Behavior, paleontologist David Hone explores the cutting-edge science that reveals how these ancient creatures lived, fought, communicated, and raised their young. From fierce theropods to gentle giants, the book draws on new fossil discoveries, modern techniques, and expert interpretation to paint a vivid picture of prehistoric life.
This beautifully illustrated volume features color reconstructions by Gabriel Ugueto and clearly explains the methods researchers use to uncover the secrets of dinosaur behavior. It’s an engaging read for casual dino fans and a valuable reference for enthusiasts who want to dig deeper into the science of paleontology.
