minus-squareGreenMario@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up15·10 months ago Feathered T-Rex. The theory is that those useless little arms are actually supposed to be wings makes more sense. Do they fly? No, and neither do ostriches. Probably glide tho.
minus-squareZagorath@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up13·10 months agoWith wings that tiny I doubt a T-Rex was doing much gliding either, considering its size.

minus-squarefkn@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·10 months agoI like the idea that their feather ratio would be more like a chicken or a turkey… and they would just be there absolutely chonky birds…
minus-squarePipoca@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·10 months agoOne idea is that T Rex arms were used to latch onto prey. Their arms were short, but very muscular. The would have been about as useful for gliding as a rear spoiler on a car.
