Weird, funny, strange facts about dinosaurs

Many theropods (if not all) could not fully pronate their wrists like we can.  That means that all their movie representations of their arm positioning are wrong.

Triceratops was the only large ceratopsian that had it's frill built to act as armour, since there were no fenestrae in the frill; the frill was solid like a shield.  All other large ceratopsians (ex. Torosaurus, Pachrhinosaurus, and Titanoceratops) had frills with two large holes in the frill, which were most likely filled with soft connective tissue.                            

*Note:  this fact was made assuming that Torosaurus and Triceratops weren't actually the same animal at different stages of life. 

Tyrannosaurus and other coelurosaurs may have had the ability to hold the tail higher while running, to create a lower center of gravity (allowing quicker turns.)

T. rex may have had the strongest bite ever.

Triceratops likely had a coat of quills on its butt. 

Stegosaurus most likely could have done a lot of the tail movements from Fantasia and the old Lost World (and or King Kong) based on a new study. :)

A study shows that all stiff-tailed dinosaurs had at least some tail movement.

Fun fact: actual dinosaurs didn't look like the ones in the Jurassic Park franchise. Not a single one of them.

@Dino Steve, well that's debatable. :I

Yes. It is highy debateable.

It is espoused by some researchers that Brachiosaurus could not lift its neck vertically as shown in so many illustrations to eat high due to their long forelimbs and inclined back and that they instead would rear onto their hind legs using their tail as additional support as shown in the first JP (Which also showed their necks lifted vertically). However; research by Heinrich Mallison et al suggests that their unusual body shape and limb length ratio made them ill suited for rearing!
