Anyone else ever wonder whether the dinosaurs were delicious?
100% they absolutely were.
Give geneticists 20 years, we'll have lab grown T-Rex in the grocery store
“Welcome to… Jurassic Farms!”
I suspect T-Rex (like carnivores in general) isn't such a good choice if meat is your goal. Sauropods on the other hand? Tons and tons of meat from a single herbivore animal. You might even be able to use existing cattle feed.
Well that's true if you have a live animal producing your meat. Not sure that applies if the meat is lab grown though?
At the point where we're making lab-grown dinosaur meat, I suspect the cool factor is way more important than silly things like efficiency. T-Rex meat all the way babyyy
Great, can't wait to hear beards gatekeep ancient flavor.
"T-Rex is soooo gamey. I prefer Diplodocus veal" "Have you tried pteranodon wings? Like buffalo wings from real buffalo"
"tastes just like chicken"
Many of them probably would
i'd imagine they'd largely taste like wild turkey/alligator, since that's basically what they were and how they lived.
I just need to know which one would be best with stuffing and gravy for Thanksgiving.
Forget the turducken. This year we're having brachiotyranotriceradilophovelociturducken.
My favorite dinosaur is the Ayam Cemani AKA the big black cock
Ahh, the goth chick
What a big boy!
You S.O.B!
I just tried to find more info, and now I feel bad about myself...
NSFW
None More Black, Hotblack Desiato's preferred fowl.
So your favorite bird genre is birds as a whole? Nice, me too!
How do you call this species?
Thanks!
De nada.
All birds are.
Cassowary feet
Clever bird...
Cassowary head
Cassoway = Velociraptors if they could also fly short distances.
Though fortunately generally non-aggressive unless you piss them off.
pretty sure velociraptors were actually smaller lmao, more along the size of turkeys
cassowaries are significantly scarier than velociraptors would have been.
Make that an Utahraptor and we can reconsider
You should hear the sound they make. Thumping bass that you feel as much as you hear it.
he have an onlyfans?
It's not what it seems to be!
Owls really are basically cats.
Ps, pls put a NSFW on it haha. I don't mind but others will.
Good call - not sure you can tag images in comments as NSFW (to get the auto-blur), but I've hidden it in spoiler tags.
When did and why did dinosaurs go from giant fangs to beaks? Or are reptiles more direct descendants of those dinosaurs
Birds are the only direct descendents of dinosaurs. Reptiles were around at the same time as dinosaurs and evolved independently. There are huge differences, scales instead of skin and feathers, cold blooded instead of warm, etc.
fwiw there were plenty of non-avian dinosaurs with beaks, ceratopsids for one.
Bird genre?
Birds don’t just look like dinosaurs they are dinosaurs, scientifically speaking.
