you wouldn't! no body knew about them until people starting finding mysteriously large bones all around the world and finally scientists figured it out. you wouldn't there would no for sure way and even the fossils could be another species than what we thought. No one can really be able to tell what happened years ago even with fossils. There is stil no for certain way.


Why did it take scientists so long to identify dinosaurs?

I'm not quite sure, but my guess is that because some fossils or bones were broken or in the shape of an animal or something, they couldn't tell with the naked eye. It also took years for them to view the cells or anything that might give them clues with microscopes.
