Looks like a headless chicken

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 52 points 4 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] ZombieMantis@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

He'd still be a goofy goober without arms

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

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

Hey I know that chick.

[–] Klear@quokk.au 3 points 3 days ago

Funniest shit I ever seen.

A walking mouth

Cyclist a year after their 100km everyday challenge:

[–] Actionschnils@feddit.org 17 points 4 days ago

All Dinos are beautiful :<

[–] Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 4 days ago

Dare you to say that to his face

[–] javiwhite@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago

I wonder if this is behind the inspiration for monster hunters murder pickle, aka Deviljho.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 6 points 4 days ago

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

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 11 points 4 days 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.

[–] s0r1th@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

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

[–] Carl@hexbear.net 11 points 4 days ago

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.

[–] BurgerBaron@piefed.social 10 points 4 days ago

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

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days 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 4 days 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 2 points 4 days ago

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

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

he probably looked like a fluffy parakeet

[–] rainbowbunny@slrpnk.net 5 points 4 days ago

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

That's a birb.

[–] quediuspayu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

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

[–] IntrovertTurtle@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days 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.

[–] lastlybutfirstly@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago (3 children)

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

[–] goostaf@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

Pretty sure it's the carnotaurus

[–] CptEnder@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

He's trying his best!

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

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