A warm welcome to The Palaeo Minute!

Crests, Calls & Cretaceous Kinships: This issue explores hadrosaur life beyond the bones. Dive into how these Cretaceous giants communicated, raised their young, and thrived together in mixed herds across the prehistoric world. I hope you enjoy the fascinating palaeontology content and discoveries in this edition.

This edition explores:

  • How hadrosaurs communicated: Their social calls, signals & nesting behaviours.
  • Herd life revealed: The fossil evidence proving hadrosaurs thrived in social groups.
  • Dinosaur parenting: Why hadrosaurs were devoted caregivers to their young.
  • Meet the hadrosaur family: The Saurolophinae (non-crested) vs. Lambeosaurinae (crested) hadrosaurs.
