When we think of dinosaurs, we often imagine majestic giants that ruled the Earth millions of years ago. But even these ancient creatures were not immune to diseases familiar to humans today, such as osteoarthritis.

It is actually an elitist activity, rather than what the aviation industry would like us to believe – that everyone flies.
