Were some dinosaurs venomous?
We don't really know. The parts that would indicate venom are too delicate to fossilize well. In the movie Jurassic Park. Spielberg speculated on venomous dinosaurs, and it's not impossible. Over the years, we've found more and more venomous animals until nearly every class has some toxic representatives. There are venomous mammals (shrews, soledons, platypuses) birds (some finches) to say nothing of all the snakes, wasps, jellyfish, puffers, cones, octopuses and rays, so venomous dinosaurs wouldn't be such a stretch.
