Dinosaur Colors

Dakota P. -- Scientist have now figured out that they can use a fossil for figuring out more than when a specific animal lived. They have no figured out that they can also get what color a dinosaur, which did not have lizard skin, was. Scientist found this out so that we could have a better understanding of what the biology actually was back then as accurately as possible. This is important to biologist especially so they we can now accurately place certain animals into the ancestral lines that they have.

I think that this is really cool and interesting because dino’s with colors other then green and scaly. To know that the world has always been colorful and not totally bland makes me happy. In my opinion it will also make the topic of pre-historic life in science class more interesting.
