Dinosaur reproduction Dinosaur reproduction Dinosaur reproduction was relevant to archosaur physiology, with newborns hatching from eggs. Dinosaurs did not nurture their offspring as mammals typically do, and because dinosaurs did not nurse, it is likely that most dinosaurs were capable of surviving on their own after hatching.

When laying eggs, female birds grow a special type of bone between the hard outer bone and the marrow of
Wyoming Dinosaur Center program. Wyoming Dinosaur Center The Wyoming Dinosaur Center is located in Thermopolis, Wyoming and is one of the few dinosaur museums in the world to have excavation sites within driving distance. The museum displays the Thermopolis Specimen of "Archaeopteryx", which is the only real specimen of this genus on display outside of Europe. Fifteen minutes from the museum are their many dig sites. Located on the Warm Springs Ranch, more than 10,000 bones have been discovered and excavated, most of which are either on display or stored just down the hill at the museum. One of the most notable fossil
