According to the science it is obvious.

It is only obvious who the bone belonged to originally. It is not obvious that it connects it to some other species.
No, that's the least obvious thing.
It would be rather rare to find a complete skeleton, and even if you did you don't know anything about the individual it belonged to.
Today they can make a good guess, then have DNA confirm/not confirm the guess, but then they know.
If the individual's death happened less than 30 years or so, sure. Before then, we had no DNA databases.
I am not an expert on DNA but I believe thy can check he DNA and from recent DNA they can determine the species,They can also check the DNA of dino bones they have and tell if the bones are from a dino.

And some times we can figure out what their diet was, and even an estimate of age of the individual. Not easy, but there are several traits that can be "read". We can even now make some discoveries regarding their brain as well.

The people who study them disagree with you. I'm gonna go with the people who know what they're talking about and can demonstrate that bones can tell a story, on this one.
What other fields of science do you reject?
"Checking the DNA" involves comparing it to samples that have been collected in a database. If no samples have been collected from an individual, nothing can be known about that individual from the DNA.
We don't get DNA from dinosaurs--did you watch Jurassic Park? That was fiction.

Oh? Please share your studies on the subject.
Can DNA not be gotten from old bones? I have never watched Jurassic Park

Exactly. It is obvious God created. You're getting it!

Disregard them! They are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.
Psalm 69:23
May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.

So if we find a specimen with a mixture of traits from different taxa, that would be a "transitional fossil", correct?

Thus you understand why you are being disregarded, right?
Let me ask the Evo crowd; if I agree that organisms adapt to their environment (which they do), will you agree to stop de-humanizing people? Will you just say 'we don't know if there is a creator or not' and move on? That is a deal I would be happy to make. Scientists could go about their days studying things, and religious people could go about studying the Word of Yahweh. How about that as a peace plan?
my apologies I presumed Vera Cruz spoke for the Yucatan. Also, I now know where Belize is, so thank you.*Sigh* Another poster taken with the sound of their own voice. Oh well.
Oh yes, just you don't make the mistake again, the meteor said to have wiped out the dinosaurs didn't hit Vera Cruz, but the Yucatan peninsula.

In what way is the Evo crowd "dehumanizing" people?
