After a certain age people stop asking you what your favorite dinosaur is, and I think that’s sad.
My current one’s the Anchiornis, because it’s in the same clade as birds so it’s in their family tree, and it really looks like a prototype of a bird. It had 4 wings for example, but it already looked very birb-y:
(Figured I’d just turn an earlier comment into an actual post because why not)
Ankylosaurus! Tail club, armor plates, what’s not to love?
Ah yes, when nature went “what if tank?”:
My daughter is obsessed with dinosaurs right now and this is my go-to favorite, too. Hers was Parasaurolophus but now is back to T-Rex lol.
Came here to say Parasaurolophus. Apparently one well-preserved specimen allowed scientists to take a stab at what it sounded like… I wish I could hear what the soundscape was like 65 million years (or more) ago! https://piped.video/watch?v=QtpSOpUDCb8
HAHA YES!

Me as a kid, as I also loved turtles. This was the time when dinosaurs saw turtles and said ‘hold my beer.’
He’s a handsome lad.
Fun fact: the nubs on the tail club are called osteoderms and the tail spikes on a stegosaurus is called a thagomizer.
Yep, my favorite as well.
It just doesn’t get any cooler than a literal living tank.

Same. I think it’s because of the movie “Dinosaur”. I love Url
