The pes of Australovenator wintonensis (Theropoda: Megaraptoridae): analysis of the pedal range of motion and biological restoration [PDF]
The pedal range of motion in Australovenator wintonensis is investigated to determine what influence soft tissue had on range of motion in the foot. Fortunately, the theropod pes shares a close morphology with extant large cursorial birds.

Causes of mortality among ostriches (Struthio camelus) and emus (Dromaius novaehollandiae) raised commerically in saudi arabia [PDF]
The incidence and causes of mortality in a mixed ratite farm which produced ostriches and emus were recorded over four production seasons (1998 - 2001). The mean annual mortality rates for ostrich and emu chicks during the rearing phase were 29.1% and 21.

Fusion Patterns in the Skulls of Modern Archosaurs Reveal That Sutures Are Ambiguous Maturity Indicators for the Dinosauria. [PDF]
The sutures of the skulls of vertebrates are generally open early in life and slowly close as maturity is attained. The assumption that all vertebrates follow this pattern of progressive sutural closure has been used to assess maturity in the fossil ...

Lysosomal Storage Disease in an Emu ( Dromaius novaehollandiae ) [PDF]
Lysosomal storage disease involving the brain, spinal cord, liver, and spleen was discovered in a 6-month-old male emu ( Dromaius novaehollandiae). The diagnosis was based on light and electron microscopic studies and histochemical staining characteristics. This is the first case of lysosomal storage disease reported in a ratite.
