Depends if you believe in science or not. Birds belong in the theropod family, which is a branch in the saurischian dinosaur family. Any modern bird, like a chicken, have more in common with a tyrannosaurus than a tyrannosaurus and a stegosaurus do.
What I meant is that it depends on whether or not you're willing to actually call any of today's birds dinosaurs. I mean sure, science doesn't change depending on how you look at it but I'm certainly not gonna call any of todays birds for dinosaurs without using the word "technically" in front as if it's nothing more than a fun fact.
It's nothing more than a fun fact to most people, sure, but to dinosaur enthusiasts or a paleontologist it is much more than that. Even though I totally understand where you're coming from, I also feel people should learn that birds are "technically" dinosaurs, since it'll help people accept dinosaurs for what they were; animals.
If you look at biology as a whole, the most advanced form of life is bacteria. It can survive space, being frozen, heated to extreme temperatures, and bacteria are the only organisms who naturally "prey" on humans. If we're eaten by anything else it's because we stepped in the way of the food chain. But bacteria, it has the balls to come straight for us. It doesn't need complex varieties of foods, it doesn't need money or politics, and it each type of bacteria is in perfect unity with itself. Some even have "alliances" with other bacteria that work together towards a single purpose. And if you think they're just microscopic organisms, look up giant amoeba.
Ball's in your court, Bill Nye. Sell me on your monkey story now.
now now. dont be rude. its a dog eat dog world. and they gotto live somehow. even if it looks savage to us you must remember that this is the world they live in and they are just trying to cope with it the best way they know how. instead of hatred. we should embrace them with love and care.
This one's my favorite because 2 of them are still chillin when this guys walks up, one of them is ready to go ape **** and the last one's like "aye boss, we goin' ape **** today?"
They're cute as **** , aren't they? I met some a while back, and we weren't supposed to touch them. Kinda tough when the babies are clambering all over you.
Yeah I wasn't allowed to pet them cause they could bite but they were climbing all over me trying to get food. And one of them scent marked my leg (literally walked alongside me dragging his butt down my thigh) and even after washing my leg 3 times in the bathroom I still drove home with all the windows open cause all I could smell was lemur piss
Bleurgh. Hard luck on the scent marking. Nah with me, this keeper-woman was getting really arsey because the lemurs were climbing over everyone, even this lady in a wheelchair, and people were trying to pet them. So naturally the biggest lemur with half a tail just strolls across my lap and sits on my knee.
I'm still amazed by how strong their little hands are.
dude come on. there was some disney style **** in jurassic world. for example, at the end, the t rex and velociraptor got done teaming up on the big dino and after it was dead, the rex and raptor looked at each other with a stare of mutual respect. that is ******* stupid they are ******* dinosaurs, and two different dino's at that. meaning they would go at each other on sight. and how the raptors went through alphas (that werent even raptors) like ******* underwear
You know I both agree and disagree with you. I agree that there was some disney stupid **** in the movie but not with the dinosaurs. The dumb **** was basically everything that involved the brothers -_- those parts were obnoxious.
On to your comment about the dinos going at it. Remember, much like animals they only fight when needed. Those situations usually being over food or over territory. The idea that and raptor and a T-Rex would just randomly fight for no reason is kind of like thinking about a tiger and a bear going at it over nothing. No, normally they'll just avoid eachother.
The big thing the movie tried getting across about the Indominus Rex was that it was an "abomination." Something that was so wrong and messed up that even the other dino's could feel it thus making them want to actually attack it which is why the T-Rex and raptor teamed up against it. This made the whole "alpha" thing a little weird I'll agree, considering the raptors kind of jumped from Pratt, to the rex, and back to Pratt. Still a bad ass movie though.
Yeah, i remember that video of the faggots running across the track. one of them got creamed but the fire extinguisher he was holding hit the driver and killed him too
One of the most important rules in motorsport is you never cross the track under any circumstances. Not even if your mother is being raped on the other side and it looks all clear
I was doing some research yesterday and found that all birds are classified a "highly advanced Theropod dinosaurs".
So not only are they descended from dinosaurs, science considors them to BE dinosaurs. I just thought that was awesome.
