small dinosaur hibernated

This was in Discovery news. Scientists found small dinos use to hid underground during the cold. Now we have some idea how some survived the meteor.

Re: small dinosaur hiberated

Hm. I don't suppose you have a link to the story? Trying to find a particular article about dinosaurs is like searching for a needle in the fossil record, or something like that.

Re: small dinosaur hibernated

Okay, so now I'm able to find another reference to this interesting story on one of my usual sources: ScienceDaily story on burrowing dinosaurs.

When I searched several scientific sites the first time, I was only able to find some stories saying dinosaurs lacked a fat layer or something allowing animals to hibernate (but I'm now unable to find those stories -- maybe I'm slipping between two dimensions or something).
