This is a Rick’n’Morty episode, isn’t it ?
What if Dinosaur is the most common form of life, and they sent their DNA here in a galaxy wide seeding operation?

Actually, it’s a Futurama plot. The one where the Professor says “I don’t want to live on this planet anymore.”

It didn’t work.

It did, but then meteor happens
And avian dinosaurs are still around

New studies show there’s likely 1 lifeforms capable of vast communication per galaxy if that. :\ but dunno how accepted that is just saw it posted here.
I choose to believe in dinoverse. Riding asteroids to new planets and lo tech.

Why are people downvoting you? There was a time scientists thought going 35mph in a car would make your brain explode. The point is, science can say anything, and until its proven wrong, it could be right. 100 years ago scientists told everyone that an atom was the smallest thing possible, and then they split that open and were like “HOLY SHIT, WHAT ARE ALL THESE THINGS???”
The point is, believe what you want with science. Until you’re proven wrong, you might be right.
Maybe there WERE two shooters in the JFK shooting. But BOTH shooters were Lee Harvey Oswald!!! Whoa!!! You didn’t consider time travel, did you???
Could be.

Finding a Pandavaris on a distant planet would be less of a cause for concern.

There’s over a million viable alternatives to DNA as carriers of genetic data, so the odds are actually extremely low that something we could classify as saurian in convergent traits
And that’s before you get into even more exotic theorizes forms of life like gas clouds in the interstellar void that appear to form helical patterns when current runs through them, silicon based life in extremophile environments, and possible micro-time lifeforms that can only exist in the interior of different kinds of neutron stars.
Also, the lifeform which got the closest to converging on the great ape body plan, which thus far is the most efficient to be observed for complex use of tools, is actually pre-mezozoic, a Permian proto-mammal labelled Suminia, it even had opposable thumbs, although it is theorized to have primarily moved on all fours, so the thumbs were probably for branch clinging instead of hammer swinging.

More likely to be arachnid’s. Would you like to know more?

I mean, if anything, it’s crabs.

Which crabs? The crab body plan evolved five times.

Crab spiders it is then.
