Where are the feathers…?
He talks about it and says the T-Rex was too big. So, if the T-Rex had feathers she would probably overheat and thus he/science/whomever thinks they didn't have feathers.
Don't know if this holds up to current scientific research, but that is what the video says.
There's some evidence even large tyrannosauroids had feathers — hypotheses range from partial feathering to feathers that would be shed during the maturation process.
The raptors have some, but ya. Guy needs to download a texture pack mod too anyway.
Everyone's a critic. I have something for you: A painter sat at the river one time, and a little bit distressed. A shoemaker came by, and he asked the painter, "What is wrong?".
The painter answered, "I can't for the life of me figure out how to paint the threads of these sandals!", to which the shoemaker replied, "I am a shoemaker, I can tell you, that the frazzles do not go that way, they go like so!", and showed the stunned painter.
"That's just it! Thank you, kind shoemaker!"
"My pleasure. Now, you might also want to change that cloud, it seems a bit off color..."
"Shoemaker, stay at your heel."
/ Ancient Roman saying, rephrased
I get you. That was mostly a gamer joke though. I can't render 3d objects like that.
Not all dios have feathers, just like all current lizards don’t have feathers.
last common ancestor of lizards and dinos was 250 million years ago odd. Dinosaurs aren't really lizards.
Idk about feathers but that's worth correcting.
At least try not to assume too many things from ancient palaeontologist who make things up because they didn’t have the technology at the time. The winged dinosaurs theory can’t explain many things about the dinosaurs. The very few were actual flying types and the dinosaurs who couldn’t fly aren’t realistic explained. The popular ember dino with feather wings was brought from the black market, there’s no farther research into it, the ember is locked away and only a few research was done. That’s what’s called bad research.
