Examination of The Winton Dinosaur Project
‘Findings in the Queensland, Australia Winton Dinosaur project show that the sauropod named “Elliot” may have died with his mate by his side (Salleh 2003). Anna Salleh from ABC Science Online discusses the new fossil evidence found by Dr. Steve Salisbury from the University of Queensland, who is one of the leading researchers on the Winton Project (2003)...’
(Anna Salleh, an incurable romantic, describes how two dino’s chose to die together rather than be seperated...)
Actually, I can see it. At one time the male sauropod knew how to feed itself, where to go to live, how to take care of itself. It got around fine and grew big and strong, master of its environment.
Then it found a mate. Then it found out it didn’t pick the right kind of leaves, didn’t live in the right meadow with the right kind of other sauropods, didn’t match the right twigs to the right branches for their nest; it coldn’t be trusted to be out alone.
So when the female sauropod died after choking on color coordinated berries, the male sauropod was so unused to thinking for itself after so many years it lay down and died.
I like to think it found peace.
