It is amazing to read about this and who thought dinosaurs used to bite one another?

It is amazing to read this but it never came into my mind to think that dinosaurs where able to bite one another.

Dinosaurs roamed the planet before early hominids were around so how could they be responsible for the marks on the bones? The fight for food or territory between dinosaurs would be a more likely explanation for the marks found on the bones.

Modern male birds partake in mating rituals consisting of aerial and plumage displays and dances – there are very few instances of direct physical confrontation or pitched battle for mating rights. This is characteristic across almost all genii and is not restricted by diet. This in turn implies that the size and proximity may play a role in encouraging direct physical confrontation for mating rights.

This is really very fascinating. It so amazing how they can determine whether the marks on the bone were made pre or post-mortem just by looking at the fact that there was a certain degree of healing. Where these marks also found on other dinosaur bones or was it just this one?

I find this article very interesting especially the fact that technology has become so advanced that we can now make these kind of assumptions scientifically. I do wonder though if it is completely accurate since there was no evidence considering the possibility of erosion on the skeletal impurities . Could it have been effected by erosion and possibly give a different assumed outcome?

Interesting that they can tell whether injuries were made before or after death according to the bones

This article provides some insight into the behaviour of dinosaurs and possible theories as to how bite marks were found on the head of the juvenile Daspletosaurus. However, there is much speculation regarding the marks and what could have caused them.
