Dinosaurs helps students answer questions about dinosaurs: What makes a
dinosaur "a dinosaur"? Where did they live? What caused
their mass extinction? Students can participate in a virtual
dinosaur discovery, follow milestones in dinosaur evolution, &
see behind-the-scenes slideshows of the lab environment where
vertebrate specimens are prepared for exhibits & research.
Dinosaurs: Ancient Fossils, New Discoveries updates what we know about dinosaurs from recent studies of
their tracks, how they moved, & their unusual body parts (e.g.
spikes, armor). "Extinction" examines the mass extinction 65
million years ago -- the possible causes, how many of the
plants & animals alive at that time died out, & which
dinosaurs survived. Interviews with paleontologists are
included.
