Let's Talk Dinosaurs

[FinalSora04]

Hay all, ever since I was a little kid I loved Dinosaurs
by the age of 4 I knew what a Pachycephalosaurus was and what it's eating habits were and it's time period. More recently, last Thursday, a good friend and I started discussing these prehistoric beasts, the theory of evolution, and where the hell these things came from.

So, I thought I'd start a thread where you can discuss and post bits of prehistoric information you find intriguing.

This is cool. My first word besides "mommy" was "dinosaur". Probably because of "the Land Before Time". xD I'm not the most knowledgeable on specific species or time periods, but I'd love to hear/discuss more about them!

My dream job as a kid was a paleontologist. Every book I had was about dinosaurs. I think I've seen all the Land Before Time movies except the last three (first was the best one).

The one thing I've always wondered is what dinosaurs actually sounded like.

That would be such an amazing discovery....although I'm not sure how one would go about discovering that.
I've always wanted to know what they ACTUALLY looked like. What if the paleontologists put bones together in the wrong way? Did the t-Rex really look the way we've made him out to be?

Dinosaurs are the shit and there literally isn't a single piece of fiction (or real life for that matter) that couldn't be improved by adding more dinosaurs. Kingdom Hearts would be sooooo much better if everyone was dinosaurs.

Most dinosaurs had feathers, our ability to resolve them into fossils just wasn't good enough to see them until recently.

The Land Before Time, Jurassic Park, and We're Back. All classics. I went thru a phase in which I was borderline obsessed with Jurassic Park lol.

I know about that one, he's saying most dinosaurs had them, which, if true, is a pretty damn big discovery that I haven't heard about. If that's true then I think dinosaurs sounded like birds.

I was under the impression that a decent amount of them had feathers, but not most. But I'm not knowledgable on this topic so f**k if I know.

Should we make a Jurassic Park in the future despite Jeff Goldblum's warning?
