Dale Russell

paleontologist Canada

Dale Russell is a renowned paleontologist known for his innovative research on dinosaur evolution and behavior. He gained particular attention in the 1980s for proposing a thought experiment suggesting that certain theropod dinosaurs, specifically the Troodon, could have evolved into intelligent, human-like beings had they not gone extinct. This hypothesis sparked debates about the potential trajectories of dinosaur evolution and their ecological impact. Russell's work has significantly contributed to our understanding of dinosaur biology and the factors that influenced their extinction.
