Direct fossil evidence for dinosaur skin colour is unknown. Palaeontologists (dinosaur experts to me and you) think that some dinosaurs probably had protective coloration, such as pale undersides to reduce shadows, irregular colour patterns for camouflage to make them less visible in vegetation, and so on. Those dinosaurs that had enough body armour, such as the scaley ones like the Stegosaurs and Ceratopsians, may not have needed protective coloration but may have been brightly coloured as a warning to predators or as a display for finding a mate. Most dinosaurs probably were as brightly coloured as modern lizards, snakes, or birds.
It is believed that some dinosaurs were social creatures. Recently discovered evidence indicates that they travelled together and that some may even have migrated, because dinosaur fossils have been found above the Arctic Circle, where food supply would have been seasonal. Grouped dinosaur nest sites have been found with badly crushed eggshells and skeletons of baby dinosaurs with slightly worn teeth still in the nests, suggesting that some babies stayed in their nests after hatching and probably were fed by their parents.
