Reminds me of an old punk rock joke: “My girlfriend’s punk. She gives head... butts.”

Just how would they know those things butted heads in order to attract mates? That seems like an unverifiable scientific wild-ass guess.

I am not sure how scientists have decided on these displays of behavior, but public TV has shown a recent series of various dinosaur finds and combined the search and science with animated displays of dinosaur life and behavior. One of this series was for a head butting species. Naturally it had dominant males butting over who gets the girl, but it also showed young sub-adult males who were ejected from the tribe learning to make friends and live together. Head butting was one of the getting to know you displays shown in the animated videos. In all it was quite a fascinating series if you have any interest in dinos. It included several carnivora, herbivores and even the largest of the herbivores, 60 feet tall with the head erect, and one flying variety.

It seems they just make stuff up and call it science. Gosh, if public TV has animated cartoons of dinosaur behavior, the it must be true.

That is the very same way they convinced liberals that conservatives are NAZIS. Made up from whole cloth.

Strange that the ones in the background aren’t whipping out their cell phones to record this...

What I was describing was NOT cartoons. It was animated dinosaurs of the realistic quality shown in the Jurassic Park movies.
