Looks about as terrifying as they behave with feathers.
Well, I can confirm their geese cousins know who they are under those feathers.
The true Canadian deterrent.
This is a little bit unfair to paleoartists. A lot of the drawings people are most familiar with came from a time when there was less evidence for feathers. They absolutely update drawings as more fossils are found that change the picture, but we don’t always go and look at the newest art. Just how much feather cover specific dinosaurs would have had is still a bit unknown but it’s unlikely they would have had anywhere near as much feather cover as modern birds.
I have to disagree with that last point. Dinosaurs lasted a LONG time, and while.early dinosaurs certainly had little feather coverage, such as stegosaurus, later dinosaurs, such as yutyrannus and therozinosaurus, were absolutely covered.
Now, there were not “feathers”, but feather like structures that eventually evolved into feathers in their descendants
I love the art in Dinosaurs: New Visions of a Lost World. Such an amazing book!
(Sinosauropteryx, archeopteryx and anurognathus. And BTW the colours are accurate. We can find out now.)
Sorry but that last one is just so fucking goofy looking. If that thing came to attack me I would just die of laughter and it would then be able to eat me.
Why would it attack you? It was the size of a budgie. Really doubt a budgie would be able to eat you no matter how hard it would try.
Majestic creatures
Would not bang
I hate its little zergling arms.
