This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I would be very surprised if a T-Rex had any major artery close enough to its skin to get pierced by a standard hunting knife. That would've been a major evolutionary flaw considering the other animals they were up against.

That really depends on the shape of the animal and how it's hunting. E.g. leopards, tigers or most predatory birds don't have a well-protected neck at all, and it's probably not shaped like an elephant seal.

Finding that artery first try is going to be rather difficult, though.
