I'm still not sure why Dinotopia wasn't the most popular book/movie/toy line in the 90s. That shit was tight, and they never made it out of the library.

I just remember the book then the prints and then the puzzles
I thought they looked cool and neat but all I could find when I had the money were just display copies

We almost missed International Dinosaur Month, motherfuckers. Read some books. Also, read this book. Turns out brontosaurus is back, so if anyone gives you any of that "it's just an apatosaurus" shit you push them right down into a mud puddle.

Yeah fuck that no thanks dinosaurs were terrifying
A being weighing in at 6-15 tons would not be able to kick like a cassowary, and given its small forelimbs it would probably be pretty wary about stomping too. So it's more like a two story shoebill or marabou stork.

That really is not better.

No that bird just had your family killed, and is watching as you unwittingly ladle their remains into the exquisitely seasoned soup he had his top chef make for you. He will then seal you in a tomb built under his mansion before moving on to deal with 007

And all that is just an excuse to post pics of one of the neatest, weirdest looking predators ever. It looked like a short-nosed tyrannosaur with horns.
People being like, oh they're feathered that's not scary. Imagine being small and hiding in a hole while some giant with two knives for a mouth is hunting you. Dinosaurs are still big and scary to a lot of creatures.
Now if I know anything about blue and tri-colored herons, you're going to want to find them in Bayou Nwa in and around Lakay. I did not know I could use gophers as bait, though.

Is it sad that my mind went to RDR2 when I saw that?
Also, anyone who thinks feathered birds can't be scary never had to face Gastornis geiselensis.

I wonder if any dinosaurs back in the day lekked. Lekking is when males all meet in a place to do their mating displays together. The females can observe all the males together and go shopping for a mate.
I'm sure at least some of them did. Were there two storey tall dinos meeting in a field somewhere to do big elaborate dances or singing or wing-drumming or all of the above? I bet it would've been magnificent.

As far as I'm concerned, based on all the info lately, dinos were just birds without the beaks.
EDIT: And with tails. Can't forget the tails

Here's something I'd never heard of before, the drepanasaur. It was first discovered in 1980, which I consider pretty recent. Apparently, they were arboreal reptiles that had prehensile tails with a claw at the tip, and hunched shoulders.
From Wikipedia:
Drepanosaurs (members of the clade Drepanosauromorpha) are a group of strange reptiles that lived between the Carnian and Rhaetian stages of the late Triassic Period, approximately between 230 and 210 million years ago.[1] The various species of drepanosaurid were characterized by odd specialized grasping limbs and often prehensile tails, adaptions for arboreal (tree-dwelling) and/or possibly aquatic lifestyles. Fossils of drepanosaurs have been found in Arizona, New Mexico, New Jersey, Utah, England, and northern Italy. The name is taken from the family's namesake genus Drepanosaurus, which means "sickle lizard", a reference to their strongly curved claws.
After that video my response is that there is no "t" in niche.

Somehow, this feels relevant.

Video mislabeled, that is clearly the MC Hammer slide.

Sure, but imagine riding a trained cassowary the size of a two story house.
Fuck yeah, dinosaurs were terrifying and awesome.

there don't seem to be any videos of any vocalizations though, which i'd be curious to hear.

Oh heck yeah dinosaur thread. Watch this modern feathered dinosaur stalking small mammals:
