Dinosaur nesting site

IN A major discovery, paleontologists
have found a vast dinosaur nesting site
in Argentina. Thousands of fossil eggs
were found at the site. Inside the egg
fragments, the scientists found the first
embryo remains from a major class of
large dinosaurs, and first definite fossils of embryo skin from any of these
Juffasic giants. According to Luis
Chiappe of the American Museumof
Natural History in New York, USA, the
discoveries should shed light on the
early development of sauropods. They
am a class of plant-eaters with long
opits and tails, small head and four elephant-ike legs.

yms ago, apparently by titanosaurs
