The Test of Time A Novel by I. MacPenn |
I'm really ticked off with a paleotolongist's
son! We can never agree on anything about dinos! He says Dilophosaurus could spit poison and had little holes in its teeth and a space in its skull for
poison glands! He also said When Dinosaurs Roamed America was full of baloney! His father isn't very famous and mainly works in the lab so I don't know his name... What do you think?!

TOM: Not all paleontologists work on dinosaurs; in fact, most work on shellfish or fossil plankton.
There are NO holes in the teeth of Dilophosaurus for shooting poison, nor are there spaces for poison glands. Your friend must be confused.
It IS true that there are many errors in When Dinosaurs Roamed America (some were mispronounciations of the names, others included things like the jaws of the Anatotitan moving back and forth). In general, though, a lot of good stuff got through.
