What if we woke up one morning all of the dinosaur bones in the
world were gone? How would we know these iconic animals had
a165-million year history on earth, and had adapted to all
land-based environments from pole to pole? What clues would be left
to discern not only their presence, but also to learn about their
sex lives, raising of young, social lives, combat, and who ate who?
What would it take for us to know how fast dinosaurs moved, whether
they lived underground, climbed trees, or went for a swim? Welcome
to the world of ichnology, the study of traces and trace fossils
such as tracks, trails, burrows, nests, toothmarks, and other
vestiges of behavior and how through these remarkable clues, we can
explore and intuit the rich and complicated lives of dinosaurs.
With a unique, detective-like approach, interpreting the forensic
clues of these long-extinct animals that leave a much richer legacy
than bones, Martin brings the wild world of the Mesozoic to life
for the twenty-first century reader."
