It is likely that scientists used fossil evidence to prepare these diagrams. Even if a complete fossil of a particular species is never found, a critical mass of fossil evidence can reveal a lot of information. Even a single key leg bone can provide a good idea of the physiological form and size of that individual animal. Continual fossil discoveries and debate amongst paleontologists will begin to develop a consensus of what the species likely looked like.
