So what dinosaurs were discovered during your birth-year? These are some of the ones for me(1997). Archaeoceratops- 3 ft long member of the ceratopsian family [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/69/Archaeoceratops_BW.jpg/800px-Archaeoceratops_BW.jpg[/img] Gojirasaurus- 16+ ft long cousin of Dilophosaurus [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f4/Gojirasaurus_BW.jpg[/img] Hudiesaurus- Poorly understood relative of Mamenchisaurus, this dinosaur may have been nearly 100 ft long [img]http://museumvictoria.com.au/pages/8753/MM-mamenchisaurus-illustration-BIG.jpg[/img] Protarchaeopteryx- This small feathered dinosaur was only about 3 ft long [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1a/Protarchaeopteryx_4713.JPG/800px-Protarchaeopteryx_4713.JPG[/img] Rinchenia- Cousin of Oviraptor, this dinosaur was about 5 ft long [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/91/Rinchenia_mongoliensis_profile1.jpg[/img] Unenlagia- 8 ft long dromaeosaur [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/42/Unenlagia_NT.jpg[/img] So what dino-discoveries were made the year you were born? You don't have to list them all. Only the ones you feel are worth listing. While not the most reliable site, Wikipedia does have good lists. Just type ____* in paleontology in the search bar. *The ____ is where you put the year ;) Have fun looking. You may be surprised by the results.

@Rex Fan 684 I'm also born in '97; those are cool! Another dinosaur discovered in 1997 was Sinosauropteryx. [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d0/Sinosauropteryx_mmartyniuk_solosml.png[/img]

@Dinosaur Fanatic; That's awesome. @futurepaleontologist1; Pretty cool discoveries. Those are some pretty major finds too.
