Triceratops was a giant horned turkey
This kinda interesting story was linked to a webpage
Tom Holtz recently referred to on this list:
http://www.foxnews.com/science/041600/times_dinosaur.sml
It's about a comparison of Triceratops DNA to that of
living animals. Apparently it's a dead match for a
turkey.
How accurate is this kind of DNA analysis of long-dead animals?
