Abstract in brief
Juvenile dinosaurs, especially large ones like tyrannosaurs, played a key role in shaping community structure and diversity by filling specific ecological niches, particularly the mesocarnivore role.
The study, covering 43 dinosaur communities over 136 million years across multiple continents, found that the presence of giant juvenile dinosaurs reduced the variety of carnivores in these ecosystems, especially those weighing 100 to 1000 kg.
The findings highlight that changes in dinosaur roles during growth (ontogenetic niche shifts) significantly influenced how dinosaur communities were organized and how diverse they were.]
Yes, this thing bothered me. In describing dinosaurs, it seems, there is a separate scale when naming small, medium, large compared to mammals. We should compare everything to a single scale.
"Dinosaurised scale" and the correct scale below. Figure from:
