Making the assumption that mammal rules apply to non-mammals...
Oh, but don’t you know that dinosaurs are not reptiles and every bit as advanced as mammals? In fact, birds are really dinosaurs, so surely dinosaurs are just like birds.
Seriously, I would like to see them measure some serious reptiles for comparison, such as crocs and turtles (discounting the shells, I suppose). But then, maybe they’d also have to measure birds.
This article is just an ongoing ‘evolving’ story that melds and molds itself to an evolutionary diatribe- They need to make dinosaurs ‘lighter’ becasue ‘birds are light, and dinos ‘evolved into birds’, so they needed to come up with a narrative that shows dinos were ‘klighter than originally thiouihgt’ in order to link them to light-boned birds (although they still haqven’t linked a sea creature to a land dweller- of course they throw some deceitful drawings of cynodonts out there making htem look almost hte same size as the next creature i nthe evolutionary tree- but the FACT was that the gulf between them is severe- the two animals were the size of a rat, and a hippo- Yet we’re told the ‘transitional record is ‘nearly’ complete”?
Egads! Dino feathers that aren’t feathers- not even close-, slow moving dinos are now warm blooded and moved fast ‘like birds’, now dinos losing weight thanks to ‘new calculating methods’ (based on current live species which are wholly unrelated)- on and on it goes- the story/fairy-tale just keeps evolving-
