Through the science of archiology. They dig up the bones and other remains of animals, reassemble them kinda like a 3-D jigsaw puzzle, and study the skeletal sructure of the animal. This gives a lot of general information. They then study individual parts of the skeleton to learn some more detailed things. The teeth for instance will tell if they were an herbavore (with flat grinding teeth), a carnavor (with sharp cutting teeth), or an omnivor, with a combination of types of teeth (like humans have)

What are scientists discovering about animals being smart?
The more scientists study animal behavior, the more they learn that animals were smarter than they thought. Now we know that even animals like octopus and alligators can use tools. Apes can learn sign language. Dolphins have names for themselves. That's just the beginning.

What are the main methods and concepts in zootomy?
Scientists that study zootomy specialize in the comparative anatomy of animals. In order to learn the anatomy and physiology of the animals, most research is conducted through dissection.
