Dinosaur Hunter
How do scientists know the personalities and characteristics of dinosaurs?
How do they know that some dinosaurs hunt in packs and some dinosaurs are solo hunters? How do they know the skin and color of the dinosaurs?
I'm asking because I'm watching Jurassic Park right now
Rarely a fossil is perserved with such detail that the shape and texture of the scales are poreserved. Rare, but this does happen.
Novangelis gave a good answer for determining color... Thumbs up there.
Behavior and activity is based mostly on physiology and brain cavity scans.
Dinos with big cerebra are generally more intelligent. Pair that with a generally "weak" body frame (small size, light bones, fair musculature, etc) typically signifies pack activity, since predators aren't as effective, if physically weak, to hunt succssfully without help...
Other such similarities between brains and brawn, among other things (dentition, availible weaponry, etc) can give clues to an organisms behavior...
