True.
![]() Velociraptors for example are only the height of a large chicken (2-3ft). There are a lot of different dinosaurs in here: http://www.dinodictionary.com/dinos_uv.asp It's good to see a scale included as well.

I always used to wonder what color certain dinosaurs were
I had some plastic figures when I was younger, and I used to think, How does anyone know?

I used to think the same thing when I was a kid Moco. I bet they probably camoflauged with their sorroundings pretty well, although I saw that some, like oviraptor might have been brightly colored like peacocks, which is cool.

Now a new feathered dinosaur has been found. It is more distantly related to birds than most other known and its also older than most of them. The new dinosaur is from the Jura period and found in Germany. It is preserved in limestone and its feathery filaments are still visible.

Adaptation is amazing. Also, an interesting idea, possible feather-like structures in others - I wonder if that's going to be studied further now.
