Dino fans with a taste for nachos, or any snack for that matter, will not want to eat nachos out of a regular glass bowl, or foil packaging. You will want the Barbuzzo NACHOsaurus Dip and Snack Dish Set, why? Because, Stegosaurus. When empty, it appears to be a Stegosaurus with a serious fin (anatomically correct term: plates) crisis, but throw in a bunch of thoughtfully placed nacho chips and it totally looks like a model of a Stegosaurus… with very tasty fins. Yummy. Continue reading NACHOsaurus Is A Fitting Nachos Holder Because, Stegosaurus

Apparently, it was car-sized, stretching to around 10 feet long and tipping the scales at 1 ton. And that, btw, was from the specimens that were dug up; God knows how long it was capable growing up to. Continue reading This Car-size Armadillo Walked The Earth 5.3 Billion Years Ago

Dinosaur-age, Snake-like Shark With 300 Teeth Is Stuff Of Nightmares
So, you think dinosaurs have been long dead? Well, think again. Among the recent haul by some deep sea fishermen in Portugal, there in lies a strange deep sea creature. It was stuff of nightmare and also a reminder to us that there are much to learn about this little blue marble we live on. The bycatch in question was a shark, but it was a shark unlike no other. It is called a frilled shark, or scientifically, chlamydoselachus anguineus, this strange creature of the deep does not bear the usual fish-like, streamlined body common to almost any shark.

So, sorry to disappoint, folks, Jurassic Park and more recently, Jurassic World, ain’t showing the real picture of what dinosaurs might have looked like. In other words, not all dinosaurs were leathery like they were portrayed in movies or current hordes of literatures and a piece of amber, uncovered by palaeontologist Lida Xing in Myanmar last year, is a further prove that dinosaurs (or at least some of them) indeed had feathers. Continue reading Amber Uncovered In Myanmar Proves That Dinosaurs Indeed Had Feathers
