1. Glorified dinosaur is not a real word, stop using it.

2. It is a small Alvarezsaurid, not an avian. What would make it an avian? Okay, well, I suppose this is also an avian then:





Really, answer my question, would you portray Stulturiomimus with or without feathers?

Let me introduce you to my little friend, his name is Yuty-bloodyfeathers-rannus, and he is a 10 meter long tyrannosaurid covered in fuzz, now shut up and answer my question:



Is that all it's known feathers? How do we know that this isn't a remnant tail tuft? Your basing feathery large theropods on a single fossil? This could just be left over baby fuzz.


Are you... is this... what?? Have you in NO WAY researched this? A. No, this is not the only feathers we found, B. Yes, it was a TEN METER LONG BABY.

I'm not up to date on Chinese dinosaurs, too many hard to read names and I don't hear about them much.
I may not like feathered dinosaurs and stumpy legged Spinosaurs, but I will keep those opinions to myself, I will not start a debate over it, I promise. 😇

Wow, just wow :o! I can't believe you actually think this 10 meter dinosaur was a baby, you probably think Archaeopteryx looked like this ::).

By my calculations, taking into account how much an average animals grows throughout it life, that would make yutyrannus the first 40 meter long theropod! This sure is an exciting find.


Edit: So wait... you do not keep up on asian fossils... even though that is where MOST FEATHERED DINOSAURS are found? That explains a ton.

I know, it is really irritating, the evidence is staring him in the face and he's just ignoring it.

I ment it could have had some left over hatchling fuzz, it was an adult, but a few tufts hadn't fallen off yet.

Hatchling fuzz on a fully grown 10 meter theropod?

If it is an adult with fuzz, that aint baby fuzz anymore, is it? Also, we found fuzz all over its body, including the head. That there is not babyfuzz, it is a structure found on many theropod dinosaurs, similar to that of emus, and it covers the entire animal.

Asia is one of, if not the, places with the highest quantity, and most important, fossils discovered, so no, you do not know shit about dinosaurs.

Which means that you do not know anything about velociraptor, which was from mongolia and china. Case settled, you know nothing John snow.

I wouldn't say the most important, megalosaurus was from Europe, deinonychus was from North America, carnotaurus from South America.

Yep, case settled. Besides he clearly has something against feathered dinosaurs (including birds).

I was up to date, until they started churning out tons of glorified dinosaurs and tiny mammals.
