Did Dinos Dance? And Other Behavior Questions

The video explores the social behaviors of dinosaurs, including herding, parental care, courtship, and pack hunting. It discusses the challenges paleontologists face in interpreting fossil evidence to understand these behaviors. While some behaviors like herding and parental care have strong fossil evidence, others like courtship and pack hunting are harder to prove. The video highlights the importance of tephonomy and trace fossils in studying dinosaur social lives and emphasizes the need for critical analysis and innovative techniques in paleontological research.

Discuss the implications of finding dinosaur nests buried close together.

What evidence is there to support the idea that some dinosaurs engaged in courtship rituals?

In what ways might the physical features of dinosaurs indicate their social behaviors?

What are the limitations of using fossil evidence to confirm pack hunting in dinosaurs?
