To preserve a fossil you need very special conditions during a long time period. That is why there are only few places in which you can find fossils. Besides, is not easy doing this type of research in Antarctica. Do you imagine the cold?

Why were so few dinosaurs found in Antarctica?
The reason that so few dinosaurs have been found in Antarctica is because it is almost impossible to dig for fossils on most of Antarctica. First, most if it is underneath a mile of ice. Secondly, because Antarctica is so harsh, few paleontologists go to dig even in the areas of rock that are exposed. To me, for those reasons, it's surprising that any dinosaurs have been found in Antarctica.
What evidence is there from fossils to suggest that reptiles lived before mammals?
The best evidence for the existence of dinosaurs are thousands of fossilized dinosaur skeletons of hundreds of dinosaur species. There are also fossil footprints, skin impressions, and, in a few rare cases, dinosaurs mummified and fossilized, preserving skin.
What is the age of fossils?
Fossils have been found with ages from a few tens of thousands of years old to roughly three billion years old.
Where do plant eater dinosaur live?
Just like today, carnivores were an important niche in nearly all ecosystems during the Mesozoic (age of the dinosaurs). Fossils from carnivorous dinosaurs (called theropods), have been found on every continent. Following are just a few examples of carnivorous dinosaurs found on each continent: North America - T-rex, Allosaurus South America - Carnotaurs, Giganotosaurus Europe - Megalosaurus, Pyroraptor Asia - Velociraptor Africa - Spinosaurus Antarctica - Cryolophosaurus Australia - Timimus

What is Nevada's state dinosaur?
Nevada doesn't have a state dinosaur. Very few states do.
What color was a dinosaur?
For the most part, we don't know as very few fossils are preserved well enough to deduce the color. With a few dinosaurs, chemical traces have been found of color. Most colors found on dinosaurs are the colors of their feathers. Sinosaurpoteryx had an orange-and-white striped tail. Anchiornis was mostly black with white bands and a red crest, making it look somewhat like a woodpecker. Confuciusornis is believed to have been gray, black, and brown.
