I don't know that most people can tell the difference between an Allosaurus and a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

never did, they just didnt have the organ that most panthers use to roar, or even anything similar.

most non-avian dinosaurs could only do deep and hissing sounds, similar to today's crocodiles. the exceptions to that being parasaurolophus and that one ankylosaurid that might have an organ similar to the one birds use to make sounds (though still not roaring)

Don't get me started on the general public's recognition of the Somosaurus.

[–] Socsa@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That's one which looks like the sugmasaurus?

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago

It's often confused with the mighty ligmasaurus.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

I apologize, but is that spelled correctly? I am finding several variations of the spelling with wildly different creatures.

Simosaurus versus Siamosaurus versus Sonorasaurus

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It is not real. I was riffing on allosaurus.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 2 points 9 months ago

Shit. I am a bit shocked how many critters have names similar for a random riff. 😂
