Dinosaur of the day Dromaeosauroides, a theropod we only know from two teeth, and maybe some fossilized poop.
In dinosaur news this week:
• A new megaraptor, Joaquinraptor casali, may have died in the middle of eating a crocodilian
• Analyzing skull mechanics can tell us a lot about different theropod dinosaur feeding strategies
• The alvarezsaur Bannykus ate meat (instead of maybe insects)
• A poor sauropod got gnawed on by a theropod (probably)
• The gut contents of a subadult Diamantinasaurus shows it was not a picky eater and it did not chew its food
• A closer look at coprolites found in the Lameta Formation in India show they were likely pooped out by an omnivorous animal, and not a titanosaur (as previously thought)
