Archaeopteryx lived during the Jurassic time period. This is the same time period that Brachiosaurus and Dilophosaurus lived. This dinosaur was approximately half the size of a kid and had feathers on its wings. It may used these feathers to run up steep hills and hunted on the ground. Archaeopteryx were carnivores, do you know what carnivores eat? That’s right, carnivores eat meat.
"Go outside, get into nature and make your own discoveries!" That's what Dr. Scott challenges his viewers to do at the end of each Dinosaur Train episode. In support of this call to action, the Jim Henson Company and your local PBS station, WSKG Public Meida, have hidden Dinosaur Train themed geocaches nationwide.
To find the location of other Dinosaur Train themed geocaches, simply search for "Dinosaur Train" in the keyword search option. Each geocache celebrates a dinosaur featured in the Dinosaur Train Field Guide on the PBS Kids website, http://pbskids.org/dinosaurtrain/games/fieldguide.html
