Best Answer

There are many ways to tell what a dinosaur ate. One way is looking at it's teeth. Blunt spoon-shaped cheek teeth indicate the dinosaur ate plants. Sharp pointed teeth show that dinosaur ate meat. Another way is looking at the skeletons. Sometimes you will find the skeleton of the prey inside the skeleton of the predator. And yet another way is looking at it's droppings.
