RE: Trexes crossword
See also http://www.straightdope.com/columns/001006.html , "The Straight
Dope" answer to the question: "How did dinosaurs (do it)?" The stegosaurs
aren't engaging in the physical act of love in the illustration, but their
intentions are clear none the less. Naturally, Cecil Adams quotes Ken
Carpenter's book, _Eggs, Nests, and Baby Dinosaurs: A Look at Dinosaur
Reproduction_, and singles out Luis Rey's "Carnotaurus sex!" as being
particularly noteworthy.
The simplest answer to the above question, in the case of stegosaurs, is, of
course: "Very carefully."
