Dinosaurs

They died totally extinct or turned into birds?

Than you for your link, but I do not trust online information because anyone can write them.




voi vittu Assari. you're so fucking odd.


Jaana, in my view it is better that all people are not the same.

I mean it's boring if we all think and act similarly.

I believe that birds are dinosaurs heirs even if it sounds strange.

In a bell tower, watching you through cross hairs.
There is clearly evidence that proves dinosaurs are more closely related to birds, then reptiles.
 
I think we have many left over prehistoric animals that eventually sized down.

For example:

Rhinoceros

Alligators

Dragon Flies

Turtles

Can anyone think of any others?
 
No, it is a dinosaurus that lived in the sea.

(Kronosaurus) (wtf?)
WRONG !

No dinosaurs lived in the sea, no dinosaurs flyed.
There was some sea reptiles (such as the mosasaurus, which you posted a skeleton pic), there some flying reptiles (such as the pteranodons) but they weren't dinsaurs, dinosaurs lived on land.

They didn't turned into birds. Some of them evolved to birds.

Birds are phylogenetically considered to be members of the theropod dinosaurs; their closest non-avian relatives are the dromaeosaurid theropods. The first known fossil bird is Archaeopteryx, from the late Jurassic of Bavaria, Germany, which is represented by seven skeletons and a feather. There is no fossil evidence from before this time that has been proven to be of avian origin. The fossil record of modern birds began in the early Tertiary (Padian et al., 1998).

There are a lot of anatomical terms used to describe the evolution of birds, therefore diagrams showing the skeletons of a theropod dinosaur, Archaeopteryx and a modern bird are shown in figure one, in order to define most of the terms used.

'till very recently we only had fossils ofd this fish, we used to believe it was extinct. But he finally was discovered alive.
This fish is even older than the dinosaurs

Does anyone else remember that 80's cartoon Dinosaucers about dinosaurs from outer space? That show was the shit! :thumbsup:
 
Looks like it survived and evolved to live on land


That might look like the real thing if the color would be more realistic.

WRONG !

No dinosaurs lived in the sea, no dinosaurs flyed.


I think that this is a matter of interpretation.

Scientist say that the dinosaurs did not fly or swim, but it is only their opinion. :wtf:

Hatzegopteryx looks totally badass :eek:

I believe that there may has been one specific breed of dinosaurs and in a timeline of thousands of years they have seperated into the reptiles and bird forms somehow
