Sauropods walk, skeletons talk.....Part 7
We have documented elevated tail posture making defensive capability of the tail plausible (Rothschild and Berman 1991), but the head and neck would remain accessible to predator attack. The question is

Sauropods Walk, Skeletons Talk Part 5
In Part 4, we talked a little about predicting behaviors from what we find in the fossil record. Now, I would like to address how understanding dinosuar behavior may contribute to the advancement of medicine.

Sauropods walk, skeletons talk Part 4 Behavior
Picking up where we left off in Part 3, and speaking of sauropod trackways (Falkingham 2012; Lockley et. al. 1986) which were made in relatively shallow water. Certainly, sauropods could spend time on

Sauropods walk, skeletons talk Part 2- Translating the skeleton
Our rethinking of sauropod tails partially derives from learning how to translate the skeleton. These areas of fusion were once thought to be caused by tumors (Moodie 1916). As our knowledge improved,
