#16: Oh, gosh...I haven't read the news yet, so this will be a bit more challenging...I'm gonna take a wild guess and say Texas, since I'm aware a few sauropods lived there.
#17: During which epoch did the true frog diverge from the protofrog?
In case you don't know already, here are the epochs during which life existed on Earth: Neogene: Holocene, Pleistocene, Pliocene Paleogene: Oligocene, Eocene, Paleocene Cretaceous: Late/Upper, Early/Lower Jurassic: Late/Upper, Middle, Early/Lower Triassic: Late/Upper, Middle, Early/Lower Permian: Lopingian, Guadalupian, Cisuralian Carboniferous: Late/Upper Pennsylvanian, Middle Pennsylvanian, Early/Lower Pennsylvanian, Late/Upper Mississippian, Middle Mississippian, Early/Lower Mississippian Devonian: Late/Upper, Middle, Early/Lower Sinemurian: Pridoli, Ludlow, Wenlock, Llandovery Ordovician: Late/Upper, Middle, Early/Lower Cambrian: Late/Upper/Furongian, Middle, Early/Lower

Gotta be more specific...I listed the epochs from each period in my previous post.

Oh. Oops. In that case I guess early Jurassic.

Its time to play a round of What's That Dinosaur!
#18: This dinosaur was named after the fact that the digsite it came from had an abundance of scorpions.

#17: You got it, Dino589. The true frog diverged from the protofrog in the Early Jurassic.
#18: Gonna make up a name...Scorpionyx?
#19: A pack of Albertosaurus was found once. How many individuals were in the pack?

Am I the trivia master or what? ;D #18: You are... sorta close. #19: As in exactly how many? Or roughly how many? I have no clue what the exact number is, but if I recall it was somewhere around 20.

As in exactly. And it's more than that.

Ok... Then I'll keep making rough guesses until I get close. 40?
