WASHINGTON -- Scientists have discovered the fossils of two new species of dinosaurs that lived in Antarctica millions of years ago when it was a warm, green land similar to today's Pacific Northwest.
One creature from this lost world was a 70-million-year-old, two-legged meat-eater, a larger relative of velociraptors.
The other bones came from a 190-million-year-old, four-legged vegetarian, an early version of the huge, plant-eating monsters such as Diplodocus.
These relics from the Age of Dinosaurs were found at two locations, 2,000 miles apart, within six days in December.
