Proto-Feathers?

[edit]

In "DINOSAURS The Most Complete, Up-to-Date Encyclopedia for Dinosaur Lovers of All Ages", by Thomas R. Holtz (the maker of "Walking With Dinosaurs), I saw a depiction (by Luis v. Rey) of Leaellynasaura with proto-feathers being chased by a tyranosaurid also covered in proto-feathers (I'll scan the picture if I can). Do you think that it is possible that Dinosaurs in Polar regions like this could have been covered in proto-feathers due to the temperature, even if they weren't theropods. It's certainly possible, based on the appearance of Tianyulong, and Psittacosaurs. --71.235.243.86 (talk) 23:29, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I also saw a depiction of Leaellynasaura with feather-like insulation, only it was in a book titled The Time-life Guides: Dinosaurs. The page for Leaellynasaura had an illustration of a dinosaur with a white mane of feathers atop its head jumping over a log. Also, I doubt the creature chasing the Leaellynasaura in your book was a tyrannosaurid, as tyrannosaurids were restricted to the northern hemisphere, it was probably an Australovenator or some other large polar theropod —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.36.153.113 (talk) 00:55, 23 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
