First of all, the author points out the cold climate persuades these animals to go south in regard to finding plants in the temperate locations providing the dinosaur nutrition. The lecturer challenged this point. She suggests the average temperature of weather at that time was so warmer than today; consequently, the situation for growing plants was convenient. Furthermore, arctic sunshine was nearly 20 hours per day establishing good circumstance to create plants with lots of nutrition.

Secondly, according to the assertion of the author, unearthed skeletons of the mentioned animals could be considered as the noticeable evidence to prove their migration. He elaborates, these animals stayed in herd been essential for migrating from origins to destinations. The lecturer refutes this point. She says a large number of animals are accompanying together in relation to defending themselves from the attack of predators, including Roosevelt’s Elk.

Eventually, the capability of moving long distances has been regarded as the final factor mentioned by the author. He states that the speed of these animals were nearly 50 kilometers per weak. Moreover they could run fast up to 45 kilometers per hour; subsequently, they could migrate 1600 kilometer from north to the south so quickly. The lecturer, on the other hands, posits only adult animals had these abilities and their children did not have enough power to go to the mentioned distances conveniently.
