Natural History

Habitats

Dinosaurs lived in many kinds of terrestrial environments, and although some remains, such as footprints, indicate where dinosaurs actually lived, their bones tell us only where they died (assuming that they have not been scattered or washed far from their place of death). Not all environments are equally well preserved in the fossil record. Upland environments, forests, and plains tend to experience erosion or decomposition of organic remains, so remains from these environments are rarely preserved in the geologic record. As a result, most dinosaur fossils are known from lowland environments, usually floodplains, deltas, lake beds, stream bottoms, and even some marine environments, where their bones apparently washed in after death. Much about the environments dinosaurs lived in can be learned from studying the pollen and plant remains preserved with them and from geochemical isotopes that indicate temperature and precipitation levels. These climates, although free from the extensive ice caps of today and generally more equable, suffered extreme monsoon seasons and made much of the globe arid.
