Having fragments of throat is an incredible thing. There are few cases where dinosaur cries could be rebuild with some degree of accuracy from bones, but are really rare as far I know. A preserved remain gives a model that allows to rebuild the real organ, and tells so much that they could had been more complex about vocalization than usually you could thought at first glance.
A seven-meter megalosaurid named Joaquinraptor casani was described this week by Lucio M. Ibiricu and his colleagues. Apart from consisting of one of the most complete megalosaurid skeletons, we also know what it was feeding on! A truly impressive discovery.

This is so exciting! Wyoming dinosaur 'mummies' reveal a surprise: Hoofed feet
"Edmontosaurus, which munched plants with its broad and flat snout that vaguely resembled a duckbill, roamed western North America in the Cretaceous Period."
"Mammals such as horses, cows, goats and sheep evolved hooves, structures that protect the toes, support an animal’s weight, offer traction and absorb shock from the impact of walking and running. But Edmontosaurus did so millions of years earlier. It is the first dinosaur, the first reptile and the first land vertebrate known to have evolved hooves."
