The dinosaurs never did go extinct. Birds are literally dinosaurs.
We love to see it folks
"Trilobites never went extinct, we still have horseshoe crabs"
"Neanderthals never went extinct, we still have humans"
If neanderthals went extinct, then explain gamers :smuglord:
I think that it is very specist to compare a normal, innocent lifeform to gamers.
Horseshoe crabs are not trilobites. Humans are not Neanderthals. Birds are literally avian dinosaurs.
I mean
Aw come on
But... I wanted to say kitties are sabre tooth tigers.
Birds are literally feathered theropod dinosaurs. Look it up.
tgirls and dino facts, a dynamic duo
its okay arguing with chuds makes all of us go cray cray sometimes
although I do see your point, you ain't delulu
TBF, dinosaurs were around for over 100 million years before the K-T boundary and diverging from each other the entire time. The time that separates birds from their ancestors is less than the time that divided ornithischians and saurischians by the end and we consider all of those definitely dinosaurs.
Because you literally are denying science.
And what indicates he's a chud? The fact that he's on a different instance?
And it's not pedantic or a "redditor comment", it's a dude sharing a cool fact he thought others would like.
Shit like this is part of why autistic people have trouble socializing. We just wanna share cool facts and you act like we're being assholes for it and use that as an excuse to be assholes in return.
No, not all theropods were feathered. There were extinct non-feathered theropods, as well as those with feathers only in youth. All of the currently living theropods are feathered, but this was not always the case.
Most of us are a little bit Neanderthal.
neanderthals were humans. And they didn't go extinct they interbred with homo sapiens
My bird baths are much too small for a velociraptor. Never mind a T. Rex.
There are wild turkeys in a nearby park. Whenever we see them, I tell whoever’s with me, “now imagine a dinosaur walking.”
Most Americans have no idea what this bird looks like but this is my favorite example...
The resemblance is even stronger if you imagine it without a tail.
