Dinosaur senses primitive birds like "Archaeopteryx" and "Hesperornis". The optic nerve was large in "Carcharodontosaurus". Among dinosaurs, theropods had exceptionally large eyes. Deinonychosaurians, especially troodontids, had forward-facing eyes, suggesting stereoscopic vision and improved depth perception. Tyrannosauroid snouts allowed for a 55˚ binocular field of view, less than a modern human but more than their hadrosaurid prey. Dinosaur senses Dinosaur senses are difficult subjects of study for paleontologists since soft tissue anatomy rarely fossilizes. The three semicircular canals of the inner ear of "Allosaurus fragilis", when viewed from the side, had a subtriangular outline. This subtriangular inner ear configuration is present in "Carcharodontosaurus",
Archaeopteryx It was on display for the first time with six other original fossils of "Archaeopteryx" at the Munich Mineral Show in October 2009. The Daiting Specimen was subsequently named "Archaeopteryx albersdoerferi" by Kundrat et al. (2018). Another fragmentary fossil was found in 2000. It is in private possession and, since 2004, on loan to the Bürgermeister-Müller Museum in Solnhofen, so it is called the Bürgermeister-Müller Specimen; the institute itself officially refers to it as the "Exemplar of the families Ottman & Steil, Solnhofen". As the fragment represents the remains of a single wing of "Archaeopteryx", the popular name of this
