one doesn't seem to hear much about dinosaurs past that "HOLY CRAP DINOSAURS" phase in one's childhood. I miss that. =( I agree. Dinosaurs are still cool, even when you get older | ||

IDK I don't know much about dinosaurs Nah, some of them are latin, some of them are locations, some are just weird names. Tyrannosaurus Rex = tyrant lizard king Triceratops has something to do with the three horns it has Apatosaurus = deceptive lizard ... those are some that I still remember from when I was 5. | ||

Don't see the resemblance really ~~ the stem is ceratops, which means "horn face", so the name fits very well with this dinosaur's characteristics. And it was found in korea, so its the koreaceratops. | ||

![[image loading]](http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/3117/jaedongceratops.jpg) Since Jaedong is Hwaseung anyway, we might as well set things straight!

Don't see the resemblance really ~~ The beak-like mouth of this dinosaur looks like one on a triceratops. The bone structures are probably similar too. | ||

Remember that body length in quadrupeds counts the snout and tail; based on this artist's conception, this critter had a small snout and a large tail. Given that its tail was most likely a fraction of its total body weight, I think it's perfectly reasonable that the length and weight numbers are what they are. To make a modern day comparison, the largest gray wolves can reach a snout-to-tail length of about 83 inches (7 feet), but weigh something like 95 pounds. | ||

Many dinosaurs were rather nimble and possibly ancestors of birds, some of then may have had hollow bones. | ||

C'mon, don't make this a friggin' religious debate for no reason. This topic is about dinosaurs from Korea, not supreme beings. Don't instigate when it isn't required, please. | ||

There was another rather remarkable paleontological discover in New Jersey, USA, this week. Archaeologists uncovered a new species of dinosaur that, they claim, lends insight into modern day culture.

And to find it in 'Hwaseong" (might not be Hwaseung but whatever lol close enough) and in Korea. Koreaceratops? Shoulda just called it Choling. And make Jaedong its owner.

I was unaware that the two trees were closely related, this is a very interestering transitional discovery, at least from the artist's impression. Paleontology is notoriously inaccurate I used to love reading about dinosaurs, and I think this guy is right about why it has -ceratops. Isn't the protoceratops the small green dinosaur with a smaller faceplate than triceratops and no horns? | ||
