It’s pretty cool to just see fossilized dino bones sticking out of canyon walls.

Stretching about 8 feet (2.5 meters) and weighing 55 pounds (25 kilograms)
8 feet long but only 55 pounds?? And fur??
It looks like a racoon. Rocky Racoonasaurus.

From Wikipedia:
T-Rex was among the last non-avian dinosaurs to exist prior to the Cretaceous–Tertiary extinction event.

They are still with us, we call them democrats now...:O)

It has been in debate for a long time if they were birds or not. I tend to believe they are based on their legs.

What do you think.....could they be domesticated?
Make a great show on TV......The Raptor Whisperer.
They probably would last too long.

....It’s unclear how this particular Linheraptor died.....
There seems to be no evidence of spear points. One wonders if they looked really close.
