What is "The Dinosauria?"

[DinosAreLife]

Daily Dinosaur Fact #56: It is often thought all throughout their reign dinosaurs were the dominant land animals. This is not necessarily true, especially when they first evolved during the Triassic. The dominant land animals during the Triassic were mammal-like reptiles and a group of crocodilians known as Rauisuchians.

The Dinosauria is a massive, collage textbook-like budding Palaeontologist manual book about Dinosaurs. It’s fabulous.

Wow, that sounds like an amazing book! I'd love to get it.

Only thing is it takes a ton of time to read, so be prepared. But my favourite, and the most confusing part because I have to go and challenge myself to remember the bones per species, are all the brake downs of each skeleton. I’m on the second chapter which is about Basal Saurischia.

Daily Dinosaur Fact #57: While we can guess and estimate, we will probably never know absolutely everything about every dinosaur. The only definite things are the basic shape of their body, their length and (depending) their diet.
