Yikes. One more thing to worry about!

Cute. He looks like what a giant clawed man-eating dinosaur becomes after being indoctrinated for several millennia by Woke colleges and universities.

His pronouns are squeak and squeal.

Proof that Jabberwocky was real!

[Does so]

That they, including ornithopod species, survived freezing winters—as species’—suggests migration became the survivors’ evolutionary countermeasure.

Godjira!

[Mr. K]

History shows again and again how nature points out the folly of man...

[DannyTN]

Mean ol giants, clawing the poor dinosaurs.

Thanks Red Badger.

And man did it ever STINK!!!

[bravo whiskey]

One could infer from the the headline they are roaming today.

That would be a great Australian bight.

"Well, what happened to it?"

"It's Australia. The other animals ate it."

[jerod]

They died out... But every other living carnivore still left in Australia will still surely kill you so watch your babies... Those Dingo's are close by.

Yeah, I got your Giant Clawed Dinosaur...

[Gay State Conservative]

For years I had passed by a sign on I-91 in Connecticut for "Dinosaur State Park". It was only a few months ago that I decided to stop. They have dinosaur tracks in petrified mud there that the guide told me that scientists think were made 200 million years ago by a creature that looked something like that creature in Jurassic Park that spit that black stuff in the eyes of the fat tech guy.

Two hundred million years! Yikes!

For anyone interested...it's just off of I-91 not too far south of Hartford. Well worth a visit,IMO.

[Red Badger]

Now think about mud and weather.

What happened to preserve that muddy track for 2 days, much less 200 million years?

You know that if you make a track in some mud, it will last until the next rain storm or the next creature comes along.

There are others, elsewhere on Earth that have been preserved in ROCK for a very long time, some even human.

So what happened to that dinosaur track after it was made?

Answer: NOTHING!

No wind? No rain? No snow? No nothing?.... And for a very long time.........

Now, some will say it must have been filled with volcanic ash that buried it and then was itself eroded away over millions of years revealing the footprints in their pristine condition.

Maybe..................

The article also mentions finding similar age bird presence. So perhaps these species were already migratory and wintered farther north in what became Australia, and only traveled that far south as the climate and light became more suitable. Also they probably all had some kind of feathers.

As to how the mud prints survived, perhaps it was an unusually high tide. Perhaps they froze overnight and were dessicated by wind as they slowly thawed. I have old items in my freezer that have dried out—called freeze dried. The article did say Spring.
