Bet they would look very cute in a happy hoodie while being blow-dried 🥺 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Zerush@lemmy.ml 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 child) The Juasic Park movies were complete wrong with the Velociraptors size, they were only right that they were smart and social animals, hunting in groups like wolfs. It was a misunderstanding, because the paleontologist, asked by the size, said 6 ft, but they meant from the head to the tip of the tail, not the height of the animal, like in the movie, which were not bigger than a turkey. Same as with the T-Rex following the car in the movie, the T-Rex couldn't run so fast, the biomechanic calculation and the weight has shown, that the max speed of the T-Rex couldn't have been more than ~15-20 kmh, he was probably more of a scavenger than a hunter. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] python@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago Turkey-sized is totally fine with me, they make teeny tiny happy hoodies! permalink fedilink source parent [–] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 2 points 9 months ago We already have pet velociraptors, they're called chihuahuas. permalink fedilink source parent
