Extractions: Use the photographs page - present students with questions like, "What do you think happened to the road? (photo #2)" , "Has anyone ever seen a dinosaur track?" Model of tracks - present a smaller version of the tracks, tied by string. Print out the actual size left and right foot prints and tie them together with string to create a model that show how several of the steps will look. The track print should be roughly 3 to 4 feet apart. View a small video clip from Jurrasic Park. Show just enough of the video to get their attention (perhaps as they are walking into class - then ask them " How do we know so much about them? Virtual field trip - to another site where dino tracks are. here are some examples.

(You can download a free copy of acrobat from Adobe DEATH SCENARIOS One of the team's main field work objectives is to excavate Fako a site which has preserved a number of sauropod dinosaur skeletons. Sauropod dinosaurs are the largest land animals that ever lived. A single fossilized leg bone of a sauropod can be up to six feet long and weigh 400 pounds! Not only will the team collect the bones of two skeletons, they will also make maps of the site, study the rock the bones are preserved in, measure and draw pictures of the positions of the bones in the ground and carefully collect and other plant or animal fossils they find nearby. QUESTION : BASED ON WHAT YOU HAVE READ ABOUT JOBARIA, WHICH OF THE DEATH SCENARIOS DID THE TEAM FIND EVIDENCE FOR AT FAKO? Why do all this work? If you just excavate a skeleton and go home, you will leave half the story in the ground. All fossil sites preserve more than bones; they also preserve clues to the following questions: how did the animal die? what happened to it after it died? what other plants and animals lived at the same time? what was the environment and climate like when the dinosaur was alive? By looking carefully at evidence preserved along with the dinosaur's bones, paleontologists can begin to paint a more complete picture of the life and death of the animal they can reconstruct a "death scenario."

Extractions: The teeth of Apatosaurus were incapable of efficiently crushing or grinding food to prepare it for digestion. How, then, was digestion accomplished? Clues to the digestion system of large herbivorous dinosaurs come from birds, which do not have teeth to chew their food. Parakeets swallow gravel and keep it in their gizzard, a muscular pocket in the digestive tract. As the muscles cause the walls of the gizzard to move, the gravel crushes the food. BLM's Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry, a national Natural Landmark since 1964, has produced material such as this Allosaurs skull for dinosaur exhibits in 40 museums worldwide. The remains of over 60 of these Jurassic flesh-eaters have produced one of the most complete growth records of any known dinosaur. Reasonably strong evidence exists that large dinosaurs like brontosaurs and diplodocids also had gizzard stones, probably several rocks capable of efficiently crushing and grinding ingested food. The large dinosaurs pulled vegetation as needed with their thin, peglike teeth, and rather than waste valuable energy on chewing, swallowed the food. The gizzard "chewed" as the dinosaur walked. This was a far more efficient system because these dinosaurs could ingest new food as they "chewed" the old food. Materials: You will need a handful of pebbles, 120 mL water, pieces of lettuce or grass, a 2 L plastic soda bottle, a colander, and a bowl or bucket.

Extractions: A lot of animals existed during the Mesozoic along with the dinosaurs. Some animals were closely related to the dinosaurs, like the pterosaurs (which belong to the Order Archosauria as do the dinosaurs). Birds, however, are dinosaurs! Other animals, like the Dimetrodon , which lived in the Paleozoic era before the dinosaurs existed, are more closely related to us than to the dinosaurs.

Extractions: North-western Queensland is the so-called fossil triangle a rich source of dinosaur and ancient mammal fossils. which has turned up the fossils of some very unusual dinosaurs. For example, theres the 7 metre-long plant eater Muttaburrasaurus, a huge and very ferocious sea hunter called Kronosaurus and a giant 3 metre tall bird. Theres even the fossilised footprints of a large dinosaur stampede at Lark Quarry which show hundreds of smaller dinosaurs running, probably from a large meat-eater.
