Mostly 3. As shown on the BBC TV series 'Walking with dinosaurs', there were dinosaurs in Antarctica. Admittedly, even Antarctica was a lot warmer then than now, but it did drop to drastically low sub-zero temperatures for much of the year, and in total darkness for months - far worse conditions than Dragon Pass would ever suffer. How the dinosaurs survived is open to speculation and theory, but the programme suggested a form of hibernation. The biggest of dinosaurs would retain body heat pretty well, but there is always the theory of warm-blooded dinosaurs (which I support, so long as the details of the biological processes are right) to get by with.
Apparently Jurassic park 3 will feature a battle between a T-Rex and a Spinosaurus...
