    It's fascinating to think how this kind of anatomy and behavior is hard or impossible to guess only with a skeleton, which mean some dinosaurs certainly had wild phisical and behavioral characteristics we can only imagine !

      Exactly. Sucks that we may never know what they truly looked like.

      "All Todays" is a fascinating and bizarrely entertaining book of illustrations by the same creators of "All Tomorrows"...it basically imagines how a far-future paleontologist might mistakenly interpret the physical forms of various extant species that are familiar to us today, based only on the skeletons. For example the skull of a manatee looks very similar to land-based herbivores, so the future paleontologist envisions it as a furry, four-legged ungulate. The elephant ends up as a whacky, nose-less creature as the trunk is entirely made of soft tissue.

    This sound reminds me of the sound Emus make. My father in law has a -herd- flock of Emus on his farm, and some got out. The cops called within several days to tell him they'd cornered his birds in an old abandoned hotel lobby. There's one Emu they couldn't catch, and to this day there are sightings of this Emu running free in Wisconsin.
    Anyway, the sound is so guttural and primordial, it makes me wonder if some dinosaurs made the same kind of sounds.

    It's interesting to me that they can still fly so well (if mostly in sprints), despite mostly walking all day. I hope they can survive, partly so we can see what their descendants adapt to, and how they adapt to it, next! Will they lose their flight? Will they continue to need it to escape their terrestrial predators?

      @erikjohnson9223 Před rokem

      In old taxonomy (& thus common speach), turkeys were considered their own group. Now (molecular phylogeny) we know they are within the grouse order. The northern (as opposed to the ocellated) turkey is, oddly, the only grouse to have successfully been domesticated, which probably contributes to the common feeling that it isn't really a grouse.
