The new allosaurus is far less accurate. the neck shape is grossly inaccurate, the bones in the arms are way off and the legs are just tree trunks instead of lean muscles. The crest is just speculation, but that is objectively an ugly piece of shit crest. That huge fucking hump on his back is also not present in the fossil record. They took a lithe and vicious predator and turned it into a big fucking lizard.

The lips thing is still up for debate. Speculative reasoning by evolutionary biologists doesn't mean shit if the fossil record doesn't support it. Which it doesn't

That model is not the same as the one in the game, and its more than just spines are missing. Comapre the neck shapes. The ingame model has a much different (and uglier) posture along with a hunchback and an inaccurately shaped neck. That model that you posted is really different from what's in game. I would also like to see how the old model would look superimposed with Hartman's skeletal.

>defensive weapons ever wielded by an herbivore
actually scientists do not think it was a true defensive weapon anymore. the interior structure of the horns are far too weak to be effective as an active defense especially against large predators.

Thats not to say they didn't provide some role in defense like simply pointing the points at something can keep them from attacking head on, and I am sure there are occassions they did actualy thrust with them at a predator. But they did not evolve as some sort of primary defense if the structure of the horns is that weak.

Same goes with the frill, most ceratopsians don't even have a solid bone plate going through the entirety of the frill. Most likely developed as a sexual display and could very likely have been quite colorful.

In addition, we have no indicator against wings on all dromaeosaurids.

For example, Zhenyuanlong is Velociraptor-sized, and obviously must've been incapable of anything even resembling flight. It's the largest dromaeosaur fossil with wing impressions.

The wings clearly served a purpose other than flight, and so we can be pretty sure that means that they were present on Dakotaraptor when we have quill knobs on its arms.

There was a documentary a while back that shoved cast trike skull into a wall. When it shattered they were like "whelp, guess that answers that." Clearly it was a very rigorous quantitative test.

The horns were sheathed in keratin, which would have lengthened them and made them considerably tougher. They were excellent offensive weapons. The frill, regardless of its actual defensive capabilities, would have deterred attacks to the neck due to the epoccipitals and predators' generally cautious nature.

He is right that at least the frill evolved as sexual display, though the fact that chasmosaurines survived into the Maastrichtian and centrosaurines did not probably indicates that their horn position was more advantageous to deterring predators.

That being said, Ankylosaurus is clearly better suited to defense.

I think the defensive role of the frill was fairly well established by Happ in 08 with a specimen that had been bitten on the face, frill and horn by a T. rex. The animal survived the attack.

Similarly the strength of the horns has been demonstrated by Farlow and Dodson clear back in 1975 when they described a trike with a partially healed puncture wound to the jugal that matches the dimensions of a Triceratops horn exactly.

young scientist make a name for themselves by questioning the existing paradigm, but doubting stuff just for the sake of doubting doesn't always pay off. The public may not be qualified to make the distinction.

Dakotaraptor isn't a bird, and most birds don't have quill knobs at all.

so by that leap of faith we'd be putting feathers on every extinct animal that had arms. Or maybe we could scales, we have no evidence of that either. Or fur. Or rainbow cloaks of elven-kind. Really if we're going to assume stuff without evidence the possibilities are endless.

flight feathers evolved in animals that flew.

the only way non-flying animals would have flight feathers is if they evolved from flying ones. One or two scientists have suggested this to be the case, while several hundred others stood back and laughed at them.

Elementary school favourite. Interest carried over into middle school. After movie and pop-culture spamming, only found theropods cool. Nostalgia dictates that Parasaurolophus was great all along.

My understanding is that he was laid off by the Park Service before he had a chance to complete publication of the species and genus he identified in his thesis.

Foster later upheld both species in his book, however he placed A. jimmadseni in quotes indicating it isn't a valid name while not doing the same with Saurophaganax. Despite this inconsistency neither name has been formally published afaik. Chure's 1995 PhD thesis doesn't count under formal naming guidelines as adequate publication.

The fossils are real and likely represent real paleospecies. The names aren't real yet.

Why are triceratops depicted with exposed beaks? Would there be certain shapes around them to dictate if they had muscles for lips or not? Same for sauropods' nostrils.

Quick rundown on which dinos we know for sure had feathers
(ask me for sauce if ya want)

>dromeosaurids, most raptors
>oviraptors
>therizinosaurus
>troodons
>yutyrannus
>some heterodontids
>some ceratopsians were know to have quills on their tails


Interestingly enough, evidence on carnotaurus specimens shows that it most likely had exclusively scales

That's the only way I can actually appreciate dinosaurs. Seeing the bones really drives home the fact that these were real living animals.

Did dinosaurs have massive, flexible dicks (similar to dolphins) to make up for their awkward shapes/positions?
>>
>>2442030
Probably won't ever find good fossil evidence of it, but I imagine such dicks would be a necessity, especially for stegosaurs.

This may or may not be Jiggy, and I just wanted to mention that the reason why the new Allo was made was because it was thought that it would fix the collision on the model and stop Allo balloons from happening. Turns out it's the rig that they both share- so when that's fixed both Allosaurus models will be playable if everything goes according to plan.

They even have matching male/female skins so you pals can pack up without looking like a different species.
>>
>>2442108
But I don't want the sleek attractive skin to be the female, dammit!.

Personally for a Carnivore, Spinosaurus. However for a herbivore, Nasutoceratops
