Probably dino. He was a good boy.

Triceratops, because they imply the existence of Tricera-bottoms. bottom-speak

Also they're just walking tanks and my second favorite Zoids.

Brontosaurus!

Mine's Aachenosaurus. It's such an interesting (if sad) story about how science works.

From Wikipedia: Independently in 1887, the name Aachenosaurus was created by the scientist (and abbé) Gerard Smets based on fossilized fragments of material that he thought were jaw fragments from a duck-billed dinosaur (a hadrosaur). However, the fossils turned out to be petrified wood, to the great embarrassment of the discoverer.

So while he advanced science by reporting his discovery and advancing a theory about what it was, he will forever be remembered mostly for how very wrong he was.

Velociraptor all the way, they could kill a T-Rex together.

If we are counting anything prehistoric from Ark as a dinosaur then Chalicotherium, if only old school Dino's then Compsognathus.

From the ark, you say? Care to elaborate?

Ark: survival evolved is a game. You wake up in a land of dinosaurs and other creatures. Through hard work and many deaths and revivals you craft yourself bases and stuff while also training dinosaurs to your will so you can ride or command them.

Triceratops

I wonder if trex looked more like a with a weird face than a modern lizard.

I just think it'd be funny to see a giant version of a chicken running around doing the chicken football thing except with a cow or something.

I see people listing their favourites... what is your favourite dinosaur?

[–] Cloudygrey@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Diplodocus. Far superior in looks to the brontosaurus
