North America boasts a rich history of dinosaurs, with a diverse array of species that once roamed its ancient landscapes. From fearsome predators to gentle herbivores, these creatures left an indelible mark on the continent's geological and paleontological record.

Tyrannosaurus was the fiercest meat-eating dinosaur. It was “king of the tyrant lizards,” with 50 sharp, jagged teeth!

Plesiosaurus swam in prehistoric oceans. Its name means “near-reptile” because paleontologists thought that it resembled a reptile.

If you love to learn about dinosaurs, you might want to consider becoming a paleontologist. A paleontologist studies the remains of prehistoric life. They study why fossils form and why the animals and plants lived where they did.

Stegosaurus means “roofed lizard.” This plant-eating dinosaur was about the size of a school bus and had two rows of bony plates along its back.

Deadly predators and herbivores alike turn a fearful eye toward a mysterious forest. No dinosaurs enter or leave this unexplored valley. Undeterred, unit Red 7 decided to investigate. That was three weeks ago, and the thirty well-armed men and women have not returned. Now Orange 13 has only three more weeks to find them before the Reset de-evolves the missing team into mice.

Deadly predators and herbivores alike turn a fearful eye toward a mysterious forest. No animals enter or leave this unexplored valley. Undeterred, unit Red 7 has decided to investigate. That was three weeks ago, and the thirty well-armed men and women have not returned. This is a unit that has faced any number of deadly threats from river raptors to fire-breathing T.

Vince Franklin is a narcissistic, amoral force of nature that has conquered the world’s boardroom and most extreme sports in his drive to find new challenges. With his vast fortune, he undertakes a quest of a lifetime and literally unearths the greatest contestants of them all to play in a game of his own making. Within hours of the game’s onset, despite one pseudo-success, Franklin finds himself fighting for his very survival.

Risen from the past, these beautiful animals inspire all who see them. Titanic sauropods roam the land, devouring forests. Ceratopsians herd across the plains like living tanks. Pterosaurs fill the skies, some as large as planes. Ruling them all, the mighty T. rex reigns as king. Powerful as they are, the dinosaurs are facing another extinction. An army of poachers sweeps across Mintari. Killing. Burning. Even the greatest dinosaurs cannot survive their modern weapons. Against this army stands Joe Triplehorn. A Mintari Ranger. A man broken and forged in the wilderness.

The early history of our planet covers such vast stretches of time that years, centuries, and even millennia become virtually meaningless. Instead paleontologists and scientists who study geochronology divide time into periods and eras. The current view of science is that planet Earth is around 4.6 billion years old. The first four billion years of its development are known as the Precambrian period. For the first billion years or so, there was no life in Earth. Then the first single-celled life-forms, early bacteria and algae, began to emerge.

This book is about how big and dangerous the dinosaur farts were 65 million years ago and how it made it difficult for humans.

By the time I’d established a camp in the covered breezeway of the Luxor obelisk - “Cleopatra’s Needle” it was called, at least according to a bronze placard on its wall - and bound her hands and feet, the sun had set and a slight rain had started to fall; something I fully welcomed after so much time in the desert. As to whether the girl welcomed it also, who could say.
