description: "Robert Thomas Bakker is an American paleontologist who helped reshape modern theories about dinosaurs, particularly by adding support to the theory that some dinosaurs were endothermic (warm-blooded). Along with his mentor John Ostrom, Bakker was responsible for initiating the ongoing \"dinosaur renaissance\" in paleontological studies, beginning with Bakker's article \"Dinosaur Renaissance\" in the April 1975 issue of Scientific American. His specialty is the ecological context and behavior of dinosaurs."
