Bird-like anatomy, posture, and behavior revealed by an early jurassic theropod dinosaur resting trace. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BackgroundFossil tracks made by non-avian theropod dinosaurs commonly reflect the habitual bipedal stance retained in living birds. Only rarely-captured behaviors, such as crouching, might create impressions made by the hands.

Fast-running theropods tracks from the Early Cretaceous of La Rioja, Spain

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Theropod behaviour and biodynamics are intriguing questions that paleontology has been trying to resolve for a long time. The lack of extant groups with similar bipedalism has made it hard to answer some of the questions on the matter, yet theoretical ...

T. rex cognition was T. rex-like-A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs. [PDF]

open access: yesAnat Rec (Hoboken)
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

Methods of studying early theropod flight

open access: yes, 2020
The study of early theropod flight involves avialans as well as other pennaraptorans. It requires the study of anatomy that is familiar to the modern ornithologist, but also very different and alien.
