Team members at Everything Dinosaur comment upon dinosaurs and Valentine’s Day as we celebrate this special day in the calendar.  This date is associated with chocolates and flowers.  It might seem a world away from the Dinosauria, but we can find some fascinating connections.

For example, a few years ago Everything Dinosaur commissioned a colourful heart-themed logo for use in its range of children’s T-shirts.  Dinosaurs are certainly very popular with many children.

Dinosaurs and Valentine’s Day

Palaeontologists have implied nurturing behaviour in dinosaurs by interpreting the fossil record.  For example, evidence of communal nesting has been found.  In addition, it is thought that many dinosaurs cared for their offspring as demonstrated by the amazing fossils found at the “Egg Mountain” nesting site associated with the hadrosaur Maiasaura (M. peeblesorum).

Dinosaur hatchlings! Maternal behaviour has been suggested for some dinosaur taxa. As it is Valentine’s Day, we remember receiving this model as a gift after providing some information on the Late Cretaceous hadrosaurid Maiasaura (M. peeblesorum) to a customer. Picture credit: Everything Dinosaur.

Dinosaur Courtship Displays

Dinosaurs probably indulged in elaborate courtship displays, just like their avian relatives. Dinosaur courtship displays likely involved complicated behaviours such as dynamic movements and intricate vocalisations.

For example, in early 2016, we wrote about some recently published research that may have provided an insight into dinosaur display behaviour. Could scrapes in the ground represent preserved dinosaur courtship displays?

To read our article: Dance of the Dinosaurs.

Pterosaurs probably indulged in complex social displays too.  Our thanks to Caldey who sent into Everything Dinosaur an illustration of a bonded pair of azhdarchid pterosaurs.  The illustration was inspired by the television series Prehistoric Planet II.  It is a great picture, and fitting considering today is Valentine’s day.

We have to use our imaginations when it comes to depicting the courtship behaviours of long extinct animals.  It is likely that some of the courtship displays of the Dinosauria would have been spectacular.  A couple of lovesick forty tonne sauropods with only eyes for each other.  Or ritual combat between two ceratopsians as they battled over mating rights. If only we could travel back in time to observe these behaviours.

Our thanks to prehistoric animal model collector Carl who sent into Everything Dinosaur some photographs of his Haolonggood sauropods.  These huge dinosaurs are displayed with several ornithischian figures including the Haolonggood Maiasaura and Edmontosaurus models.  The foliage for these herbivores to feed on are two cycad trees from the CollectA range of figures.

It is certainly a most impressive collection.

Superb Haolonggood Sauropods

The range of Haolonggood dinosaur models has expanded to include a range of Jurassic and Cretaceous sauropods.  However, the company has yet to make a Triassic sauropodomorph or indeed an example of a basal sauropod such as Vulcanodon, Shunosaurus or Cetiosaurus.  There is already a wide variety to choose from.  There are giants such as Mamenchisaurus and Apatosaurus was well as representations of smaller sauropods such as Amargasaurus and Dicraeosaurus.

To view the range of Haolonggood sauropods and other prehistoric animal figures available: Haolonggood Dinosaur Models.

Displaying the various 1:35 scale figures together really helps to give an insight into the size differences between different sauropods.  In addition, it puts the size of some duck-billed dinosaurs into perspective too.

Commenting on the display shelf, Mike from Everything Dinosaur stated:

“What an incredible display!  This dinosaur model collector is highlighting the enormous variety of sauropod figures.  The whole shelf is a tribute to these majestic animals and the intricate details of the models.”

Thank you Carl, for sending these wonderful photographs.

A unique and imaginative tyrannosaur hybrid was spotted at a trade show. “B-rex” is a cross between a bee and Tyrannosaurus rex.  The unusual theropod was on display at the London Toy Fair.  It is certainly one of the most unusual dinosaur models that we have come across.

“B-rex”

Bees are insects (Insecta). They belong to the order Hymenoptera. The ancestors of bees are thought to have evolved in the Early Triassic, shortly before the first dinosaurs evolved. Social members of this order are thought to have first appeared during the Cretaceous. Insect fossils are extremely rare. However, it is thought that with the rise of the flowering plants, bees evolved and became numerous in the Late Cretaceous.

Therefore, it is likely that bees and Tyrannosaurus rex co-existed. Although, we suspect they rarely interacted.  It is extremely unlikely that any evidence demonstrating interactions will be found in the fossil record.

The “B-rex” is a most intriguing figure.  The black and yellow stripes on the body, the delicate wings on the back and the two antennae on the head.  This model is a tribute to the designer’s active imagination.

At the London Toy Fair, excitement was in the air as visitors flocked to the trade stands.  It was extremely busy.  However, amongst the many attractions, a team member from Everything Dinosaur spotted a friendly Triceratops.  This cheerful character was being escorted around the busy halls.  The Triceratops welcomed exhibitors and visitors.  We were allowed to take a photograph.

A Friendly Triceratops

At Everything Dinosaur, we appreciate all the hard work of the people dressed as characters.  The costume would have been hot and with three horns on the face, it would have been difficult to see where you were going. The Triceratops character posed for photos and spread joy wherever they went.  The bright red ceratopsian reminded everyone that playtime is important, regardless of age. This memorable moment at the London Toy Fair highlighted the power of creativity and fun.

Not sure what species was being represented T. horridus perhaps? Maybe the geologically younger Triceratops prorsus?  Palaeontologists might have skin impressions of the Triceratops taxon to study, but we are not sure what colour this dinosaur was.  We suspect that it was not bright red, but you never know…

It was a great start to 2025 for fans of UK fossil sites.  The University of Birmingham sent out a media release about the investigation into extensive dinosaur trackways found in Oxfordshire. Five dinosaur trackways dating back to the Middle Jurassic had been unearthed in an Oxfordshire quarry.  Four of the trackways were made by sauropods.  The research team behind this remarkable research suggested that the footprints could have been made by a dinosaur such as Cetiosaurus (Cetiosaurus oxoniensis).  The research project was co-led by the University of Birmingham and the University of Oxford.

To read Everything Dinosaur’s blog post about the dinosaur tracks: Remarkable “Dinosaur Highway” Found in Oxfordshire.

Mike and Sue from Everything Dinosaur remembered visiting the wonderful Oxford University Museum of Natural History (OUMNH) and viewing the Cetiosaurus (Cetiosaurus oxoniensis) fossil specimens on display.

Cetiosaurus Fossils on Display

The picture (above) shows several sauropod fossils on display at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History.  A femur is shown on far left. The large bones in the centre are a right scapula and a right humerus. The fossil bones adjacent to them are from the lower portion of the forelimb (right ulna and right radius). Above these limb bones several caudal vertebrae (tail bones) are displayed.  These fossils have been assigned to the taxon Cetiosaurus.  The fossils represent some of the very first sauropod bones to have been extensively studied.

Cetiosaurus was the first sauropod to be named (Owen, 1841).  At the time, Richard Owen thought the bones represented some sort of giant marine crocodile – hence the name which translates as “whale lizard”.

The image (above) shows a close-up view of the huge right femur of a sauropod.  This fossil bone has been assigned to Cetiosaurus.  The text in the exhibit refers to Cetiosaurus as the “Oxford Brontosaur”.  However, the exact taxonomy of Cetiosaurus oxoniensis is disputed although it is quite certain that it was only very distantly related to diplodocids such as Brontosaurus.

Cetiosaurus and Megalosaurus

The theropod trackway has been tentatively assigned to Megalosaurus.  Megalosaurus is another iconic dinosaur that has links to the OUMNH.  Although Megalosaurus has become something of a taxon wastebasket, the only fossil remains ascribed to Megalosaurus with any degree of consensus were found in Oxfordshire.  The track site provides some tantalising evidence of sauropod and theropod interaction.  For example, some of the tracks intersect.  A theropod dinosaur walked over tracks made by a sauropod.  There is no way of knowing how much later the meat-eater walked in the same direction as the herbivorous dinosaur. Perhaps the theropod was stalking the sauropod.

As part of the University of Birmingham media release we received some wonderful artwork from the very talented Mark Witton.  In the illustration, a Megalosaurus attacks a juvenile sauropod.

The remarkable Oxfordshire track site will feature in a BBC Two documentary.  In addition, the OUMNH will open a special exhibition about the dinosaur tracks shortly.

Mike from Everything Dinosaur commented:

“The images we received from Birmingham University reminded us of our visit to the Oxford University Museum of Natural History.  It was wonderful to be able to view the Cetiosaurus oxoniensis fossils.  It is a fabulous museum with some amazing exhibits.”

Our thanks to Caldey who sent into Everything Dinosaur a beautiful and carefully crafted festive Triceratops card which made team members smile.  At Everything Dinosaur, we have been extremely busy preparing and packing orders for customers.  It is nice to know our efforts are appreciated and thank you Caldey for sending us this wonderful festive card.  We think it features one of the recently introduced Haolonggood Triceratops models.  We loved the way in which the Triceratops has managed to end up with a present stuck on its brow horn.
