Teeth, Claws and Dinosaurs

Description

Teeth, Claws and Dinosaurs

Animals have different sizes and shapes of teeth, claws and bones to help them to feed and survive, and dinosaurs were no different!  In this virtual tour the Tate Geological Museum education specialist will show the students dinosaur teeth, claws, eggs and other fossils from a variety of prehistoric animals and explain how we can look at their shapes to determine if each animal was an herbivore or a carnivore. How did the carnivores kill their prey? How did the herbivores protect themselves? What did a dinosaur use its tail for? The answers are all right there in the teeth and bones!
