RE: Scientists Conclude Prehistoric Frog Ate Small Dinosaurs
You know, this just proves that scientists, especially biologists, are weird and have too much time.

LOL I really cannot contest that point! But as weird as it is, this is important info. By determining bite forces of prehistoric animals, we can better depict what ancient food webs and species interactions looked like. Through the madness of that web of life, we can better understand how modern species, including human beings, evolved thanks to those bizarre early interactions! So, yes, this is probably driven by an odd curiosity and bizarre fascination, but it is applicable!
Biologists can't explore a significant portion of the world. The depths of oceans are still unexplored. Antarctica's hostile environment prevents them from launching extensive research initiatives on the continent. So, they have a lot of time to research on history of evolution.
Until they find a way to survive the other stuff
