Dinosaurs have attracted varying degrees of scientific and public interest since their initial description in 1824.

Since then, there been a feedback system (international scope) promoting increased activity ever-increasing attention.

Recognizing 11 000 living given us better understanding many aspects biology nonavian Along with technological improvements, this revealed new—and often surprising—facts about anatomy (bones, soft tissues, even colours), interrelationships, biomechanics, growth variation, ecology, physiology, behaviour, extinction. In spite intensity over last six decades, no indication discovery facts slowing down. It quite clear still lot be learned!
