Would you rather fight 100 chicken sized dinosaur or 1/100th of a dinosaur sized chicken?
Comment on What if Tyrannosaurus Rexes moved and walked like chicken do?

I do see your point, it would probably look funny from a safe distance… Chicken (especially roosters) can be vicious. Up close, a dinosaur-sized chicken would be freaking terrifying!

I question whether one should fear a T-Rex or not.
First of all, they may have been scavengers and not predators.
Secondly, would they even bother with something so small as a human even if they were predators? 🤔
Aremel@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I can’t speak to lions and mice, but chickens or even just birds in general will peck at anything smaller than them that moves.
Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Most scavengers will gladly accept an easy meal, just like chickens will gobble up little bugs they see on the ground without giving it a second thought.

You eat hamburgers, it’s a similar scale comparison

Would you rather fight one T-Rex sized chicken or 100 chicken-sized T-Rex?
NightAuthor@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Def 100 chicken sized t-rex, they’re not pack hunters, so you won’t have to deal with a big coordinated attack. Just have to fight the tiny-rex a few at a time.

I mean, they’d be pretty much like real chickens.
Chicken rules are just prison rules.
You pick the biggest one, and punt it across the yard. Then it attacks the second biggest one and you’re done.
If you let one of them attack you first, then the rest are going to want to see how they measure up.

Unless you accidentally punt the one that makes the toilet wine… then you’ll have a mess of alch-y chickens looking for your flask & going all puke-a-potamus all over shoes.

I’ve played enough Zelda to know that chickens do attack in packs so why wouldn’t a T-Rex and how do we know for all we know they were purple and sang songs.
Aremel@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Yeah, I saw that documentary. They would even sometimes team up with yellow triceratops.

You…attacked the cocos??? YOU MONSTER!!!
Fun fact, Danny Sexbang had ZERO idea about that feature despite playing Link to the Past growing up. It wasn’t until Arin Hanson forced him to repeatedly attack them. Then we got to hear Dannys reaction in realtime for the first time ever seeing what happens.

Pack of compsognathus says hello.

Not sure how out of date the research is, but in the original Jurassic Park book, there are roaming packs of these things that overwhelm and kill people.
Though the on screen scene of them killing people happens in the second movie, it actually takes place in the first book IIRC… anyway, they’re basically depicted as land piranhas.

You do. That’s how John Hammond goes. Falls in a ditch, breaks his leg, and the compys eat him alive. At least that’s what I remember.

Can I fight the mad scientist making these abominations?
dragnucs@lemmy.ml 4 months ago
Given I have seen how chickens and birds in general fight, I would fight a 100 chucken-sized t-rexes.
Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Neither!
