T-rex was essentially a giant chicken

they kind of are though.

alternatively the house cat is shrunken tiger

when you see what lions looked like in the past even the wild ones look like house cats

This is the world's deadliest Hunter, by success rate, the African blackfooted cat. A ferocious wild animal.

Here are some kittens, who will quickly learn how to be a killers.

We lived with the dinosaurs. I can confirm T-Rex's were giant chickens. They became extinct because they wouldn't stop running and fell off the earth.

Every year or so I randomly look up dinosaurs and am always disappointed at how they are supposed to look like.

There’s some amazing scientific knowledge being shared in this thread.

most people also don’t realize how badass chickens can be.

Kind of, comparison starts to fall apart at that point.

Even then we could still be putting the bones together wrong. Who decides whether the fossil exhibit is standing upright or in a slouched position? Why would the above T-rex's feathers be covering its arms? It hardly seems useful?

1. Experts who study dinosaur fossils, and the fossils of other animals, whose expertise in the field is light years beyond some people on the internet with no education, put them together. I’m pretty sure they know what they’re doing. And I’m pretty sure the way the bones fit together informs whether or not the animal walked upright. Mainly, the hip bone.

2. I doubt T-Rex’s feathers would be covering its arms. But idk because I’m not an expert in that field. Also, it’s possible that the T-Rex didn’t have feathers at all. They were found on one of its ancestors, preserved in a volcano eruption. However, dinosaurs were around for a long time and the t-Rex could have, after millions of years of evolution, had no feathers.

that's a good question, how do you determine if they have fur or not

Some dinosaurs have been proven to have had feathers due to impressions on the bones that are consistent with feathers and/or fused tail vertebrae that is indication of feathering.

The velociraptor, made famous by Jurassic park, was feathered. About the size of a large turkey tho, around 35-45 lbs. Not something to mess with, but nothing like the scaly 7 foot tall lizards portrayed in the films
