This was an intermediate class between endotherms and ectotherms, which meant that dinosaurs had a metabolic charges in-between these of heat and cold-blooded creatures.
Dr. D’Emic, used knowledge obtained from the dinosaur fossils together with the Tyrannosaurus rex and re-visited the conclusions of the unique paper.
