The Ecology of Dinosaurs

For more than 140 million years, dinosaurs were among the dominant land animals on Earth. Thousands of species lived and died across all climates and environments and on every landmass. The National Museum of Natural History’s curator of Dinosauria, paleontologist Matthew Carrano, explores what life was like for dinosaurs in these ecosystems as he discusses what scientists know, don’t know, and hope to learn about the ecology of dinosaurs.
