A new study debunks previous findings that the dinosaurs intelligence was similar to that of primates, finding instead that theyre about as smart as modern-day crocodiles.

Dim-witted dope or brainy brawn? The debate over T.

Dinosaurs were more like smart giant crocodiles but not as intelligent as monkeys as an earlier study had found,...

WASHINGTON- Surmising even the physical appearance of a dinosaur - or any extinct animal - based on its fossils is a tricky proposition, with so many uncertainties involved. Assessing a dinosaur's intelligence, considering the innumerable factors contributing to that trait, is exponentially more difficult. A study, published last year by Vanderbilt University neuroscientist Suzana Herculano-Houzel that evaluated the intelligence of...

A scientific team suggests a more holistic approach to assess the braininess of Tyrannosaurus or any extinct animal, with brain size and neuronal count considered alongside other factors that offer insight into its life

New research challenges previous beliefs about dinosaur intelligence, suggesting they were more akin to "smart giant crocodiles" rather than as intelligent as monkeys. The study re-examined dinosaur brains, including those of T. rex, finding that neuron counts are not reliable indicators of cognitive performance.

A new study says large predator dinosaurs like the T. rex were not dim-witted as previously believed.
