    I think the weirdest thing to me about Deinocheirus is the fact that it’s an Ornithomimusaur. All its cousins are relatively small, very fast, and very adaptable. Deinocheirus is the exact opposite of all of those things. A huge duck with gigantic arms and devastating claws is pretty badass tho.

  • @Legacy-sw7bv
    @Legacy-sw7bv Год назад +5

    Depending on the flora in their habitats, I like to think Therizinosaurs would skewer certain softer plants and make clawbabs to access hard to reach foods (under water, too high on too strong branches, in thorny bushes, etc.), avoid lowering their heads down to ground level, or lessen consumption of the inedible parts of plants.
    There's not much evidence at all to suggest this, but how cool would it be if they also used those claws to drum out fancy beats, or exercise their sketch art skills to attract mates? Imagine a musical /artistic dinosaur...

    Still waiting to learn about the mysterious, "Tri-secro-plox" mentioned in JP III.
    Also, imagine all the giant insects or giant spiders that did not leave any fossils that must have existed.
    I don't believe Brontos (yeah I call them Brontos)... and those types just ate plants.
    I bet they ate big bugs... LOTS of big bugs!
    Who knows? Maybe giant roaches existed to the point of roaching out the entire planet...
    Being a huge food source for the dinos....
    But imagine....
    A spider bigger than a car.... the webs such things could make...

      Arthropods can only get to a certain size on land because of the way that they breathe. Instead of having lungs, they have spiracles, or little holes along their body that oxygen just passively enters into their blood from. Because of this, larger arthropods require larger spiracles to get enough oxygen, but too large spiracles basically act as open wounds, where it is far easier for pathogens, parasites, and other contaminants to enter the bloodstream. The carboniferous was the period in Earth's history when oxygen levels were at their highest and there were some gigantic bugs on land, but those were pushing the limits of what the arthropod body could sustain, and once oxygen levels decreased they gradually lost their huge size or died out. Crustaceans in the ocean are able to get so big because they have gills that actively draw oxygen from the water, and the water also helps them support their soft bodies after they molt. An insect the same size as a king crab would be crushed under the weight of its own body if it were to molt.

      If this theory really exists, then it's REALLY wrong. Therizinosaurids are actually more closely related to Alvarezsaurids, splitting off from them after after the ornithomimosaurids and tyrannosaurids.
