    i know its the nytimes, so we can assume american units, but i find it sort of crazy that even throughout the body of the article it doesnt ever say "fahrenheit".

      Common sense suggests that living creatures are likely not boiling when they have a mild fever.

        I know nothing about dinosaurs, so if you had told me that their blood was 97°C then I would've believed you
