MINI DINO INFODUMP 3.5 😨❗️❗️❗️❗️

1. dinosaur farts literally contributed to GLOBAL WARMING, it’s estimated that dinosaurs produced 250 million metric tons of gas per year, comparable to the amount of methane pumped into the atmosphere today. the methane trapped heat in the earths atmosphere, basically warming the earth up to 1 degree Celsius

2. though most dinos had only one heart, it’s suspected that some dinos, like the barosaurus may have had up to EIGHT hearts

3. though not technically a dinosaur, the triopticus, a prehistoric  reptile closely related to dinosaurs , had 3 eye sockets leading to the possibility that it may have had 3 eyes. triops, prehistoric crustaceans dating back to the Triassic period (when dinos first showed up) to present day also have 3 eyes an are foundon ever continent bsides antarctica 

4.the berthasaura was a probable carnivorous dino w NO TEETH.

5. the fona ezrogae was a dog-sized herbivorous Dino that would burrow into the ground, kinda digging their own graves in a sense but while they were alive they also hid for protection against predators and harsh weather

6. the US and china are the top 2 countries w the most discovered dinos, with about 320 species found in each

7. 75 million year old dino blood and collagen were found in dinosaur bones previously regarded by scientists as “crap” for they highly doubted anything would be found in them
