Are we absolutely sure some dinos had tiny arms like this and they didn't just not find all the bones? πŸ€”

How humans would look if you drew them like we draw dinosaurs:

Hey I know that chick.

What if this guy had beautiful plumage and we’ll never know that it was the prettiest dinosaur that ever was?

[–] ZombieMantis@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

He'd still be a goofy goober without arms

If a cactus had it's spines removed and was a dinosaur:

I will not tolerate any Carnotaurus slander, they are freaking amazing.

[–] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

It's my sons favorite dinosaur, we will fight by your side to defend it.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 10 points 1 day ago

Yeah until you play the Isle and a psck of these sprints at you at like 45 mph and your dinosuchus is caught out of water.

[–] Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 day ago

Dare you to say that to his face

A walking mouth

This dino was on its way to becoming a giant snake when the asteroid hit, and now for all of history gets remembered as this thing.

[–] Actionschnils@feddit.org 14 points 1 day ago

All Dinos are beautiful :<

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He's still the product of millions of years of evolution, so he had something going for him.

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, but he's dead now so he's not doing so well atm. Well check back later.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 5 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

He pissed off God, real bad. All those dinosaurs did. It was a Noah kind of thing, but nobody survived to write about it.

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

Don't you get it?! Avian ancestors were the Noah. That's why all the other dinosaurs died!

[–] CptEnder@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago

He's trying his best!

That's a birb.

I can't understand that head. Did they forgot to draw the head?

[–] IntrovertTurtle@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

It's looking to your left. It's similar to a T-Rex. 2 large 'eyebrows' on top of the skull, over the eyes.

[–] BurgerBaron@piefed.social 7 points 1 day ago

Lucky dinos couldn't talk or this one would get bullied back into the ocean.

[–] lastlybutfirstly@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (3 children)

So what is it? What's it's name?

[–] goostaf@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Pretty sure it's the carnotaurus

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago

I mean, you don’t need arms if your a vicious killing mouth with legs.
