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)
But haven’t they extincted by the astroid?
No they haven’t, if you go outside you might even see some!
Most dinosaurs did go extinct! Now there’s only the avialan “branch” left which includes all modern birds, and their extinct ancestors like eg. the Archaeopteryx
