‘We found bones, teeth, fish scales, plant fragments, and even tiny beetles.’

Fossilized droppings from the Triassic and Jurassic are revealing the diets of some dinosaurs—including a surprising taste for charcoal.

Studying bromalites helped paleontologists piece together how the reptiles came to rule a part of the prehistoric world.

Scientists are using used fossilized feces and vomit from Poland to reconstruct how dinosaurs came to dominate the Earth.

The scientists took a closer look at fossilised dinosaur poo to determine what helped the creatures survive millions of years.

But the way the dinosaurs -- modest creatures initially -- came to supremacy is less well understood. New research that relied heavily on fossilized feces and vomit -- evidence of who is eating what and who is eating whom - provides new clarity on how dinosaurs bested the competition during the Triassic Period.

The amazing new study, published Wednesday in the journal Nature, analyzed hundreds of dino droppings to reconstruct who was eating whom 200 million years ago
