Chonkosaurus!
YEETASAURES
I fucking love this!
lol same. new favorite dinosaur. can’t wait to harass everyone I know about it 🤗
I’ve always been more of an ankylosaurus guy myself.
I love the idea of this, but the size of their chest cavity leaves me wondering if it’s feasible.
The spines on a buffalo are a lot thicker and shorter. Any muscle attached to the spines of a spinosaurus would snap them in half.
Maybe but some modern lizards have spinosaurus like frills so we know it’s possible.
The Yeetasaurus. Majestic.
I love that spinosaurus is such a contentious topic in paleontology.
Yeah we can’t even tell if they walk on two legs or four lmao
