Herbivore or Carnivore?

We looked at pictures of carnivores (meat eaters) and herbivores (plant eaters) and we discovered that they had different body parts.

A carnivore has sharp teeth, usually stands on two legs so it can run fast and often has sharp claws to catch it's prey.

A herbivore has bumpy teeth for grinding plants, walks on four legs and has a big stomach to fit all that food in.

Here are some pictures of carnivores and herbivores and what they eat.

Paleontologists at Work

Paleontologists are people who find and study things from a long time ago, such as dinosaur fossils.  Sometimes they find bones that are scattered all over the place and they have to put them together.  As you can see from our pictures, you can make lots of different looking dinosaurs with the same bones.  I wonder which one is right?
