Looking after the young
Some fossils suggest dinosaur parents cared for their nests. Fossils of the dinosaur Citipati have been found sitting over their eggs in a brooding pose, much like a bird on a nest.
About baby dinosaurs
Every dinosaur hatched from an egg. Even the largest long-necked dinosaurs began life small enough to hold, then grew quickly. Fossils of young dinosaurs are rarer than adults because small bones are fragile and are easily destroyed before they can fossilise.
Fun facts
- All dinosaurs hatched from eggs.
- Young dinosaurs often had larger eyes and shorter snouts than adults.
- Growth rings inside fossil bones show how fast a dinosaur grew.
- Some dinosaur fossils were found sitting on their nests.
- Baby dinosaur fossils are rare because small bones break down easily.
