Dino Dads

Frankie Jackson, one of the professors who orchestrated my "Dinosaur Paleontology of the Hell Creek Formation" course this summer, was quoted in today's Washington Post about a study she and colleagues have published in Science today. The study suggests that male theropod dinosaurs played a significant role in incubating eggs and tending to young.
