Baby Deinonychus Life on our Planet

[@anthonybusch4407]

Deinonychus. A member of the raptor family that deserves more opportunities to shine.

[@RichardX1]

They were the first dromaeosaurs I ever heard of, thanks to Dino Riders.

[@Azuris190]

When Jurassic Park came out, i was 6 Years old and thinking:"Why are they calling the Deinonychus by a false Name?". The old Way to picture it was nearly exactly the same and from the Specimens alone, well they are related. Afterwards i never got why they didn't use the Deinonychus, as the Velociraptor is so much smaller in real Life, they just could said it is a bigger Breed: Guess Raptor just sounds cooler.

[@anthonybusch4407]

From my experience, they were from Jurassic Fight Club, hunting in packs and attacking a Tenontosaurus.

[@Rinoarashi-P]

actually it's overrated Jurassic Park Franchise raptor is actually based on Deinonychus, but later they named it "Velociraptor antirrhopus".

[@AxoBoy-n6]

My fav raptor

[@jacobcox4565]

This documentary series will have bullsh*t like depicting Lystrosaurus as being the Permian equivalent to the Dodo bird and showing a single Cave Lion taking down an adolescent Mammoth twice its size, but then also show some really great scenes like this one and the Arthropleura segment.

[@ExtremeMadnessX]

Right? It's frustrating.

[@Carlos-bz5oo]

The Arthropleura is kinda eh too. New studies show it lived on open plains, not swamp forests

[@jacobcox4565]

@@Carlos-bz5oo That'd be really interesting to see. I wonder what plants grew there, because grasses weren't there to cover the ground yet. Every time a paleo documentary shows life during the Carboniferous period, it's always in a swampy forest.

[@Carlos-bz5oo]

@@jacobcox4565 I'm assuming probably horsetails or seed ferns

[@jacobcox4565]

@@Carlos-bz5oo I wonder if moss was just as widespread as grass is now and it covered the majority of the ground.

Why is it that baby raptors have to look so dang adorable?

[@anthonybusch4407]

Because like most baby animals today, that’s what baby dinosaurs are? Adorable?

[@GalvyTheTom]

They're small, fluffy, curious, and make squeaking noises. They're basically kittens mixed with baby birds, both of which are objectively some of the cutest things in nature.

[@PurpG24]

Its not like that in reallife because we dont know what it looks like its EXTINCT

[@supersai-raptor5167]

These are some of the most beautiful looking dromaeosaurs I’ve ever seen in modern Dino media.. I love their one not color scheme, those beautiful cutting intelligent bird like eyes…the uniform ptotofeathers…so gorgeous…

[@An-kw3ec]

I love their eyes, very realistic and menacing looking without looking reptilian.

[@ExtremeMadnessX]

Prehistoric Planet make them even better.

[@InspectorWhoReacts]

Every once in a while I get hit with that existential reminder that these amazing creatures once lived on the same planet I do. I could be sleeping where a nest once existed millions of years ago.

[@veggieboyultimate]

If people back in the 1800s saw the Deinonychus like this, they would probably think it’s nonsense.

[@anthonybusch4407]

Hmmmm, ya think so?

[@DragonHelm]

The first dromaeosaurs weren’t discovered until the early 1920s, and Deinonychus itself wouldn’t be discovered by paleontologists until the 1960s. The closest thing to dromaeosaurs that 19th-century scientists had was Archaeopteryx, which was named for a single isolated feather, and later, full skeletons with feather impressions. They also didn’t have any entrenched pop culture depictions of dromaeosaurs to fall back on and would likely be more open-minded about the subject. Based on this, I'd say it's actually more possible that people from the 1800s would be more comfortable with this depiction than most of us are.

[@tempestvenator9809]

​@@DragonHelmI think they would look back on old medieval bestiaries and notice that creatures like the Dromeasaurs look like certain mythological creatures like the Cockatrice or even smaller dragons. Since some medieval depictions of dragons have feathers. Honestly, modern dinosaurs look more like creatures that we hear about in mythology with surprising accuracy. Which makes them even more awesome compared to their typical Jurrassic Park depiction.

[@Tallacus]

Cutie, cutie, cutie, snuggle with momma

[@somesassybrat305]

I was a bit confused as a kid when Jurassic park came out and displayed the velociraptors as these large predators capable of hunting and killing humans, since in my dinosaur books, it showed the velociraptor being a rather small dromaeosaur while the deinonychus was obviously one capable of taking on humans if they were to confront them. It was only later I heard that the name was "switched around" for the species because it "sounded cooler". Although the books by Michael already clearly showed that the genetic research they did was capable of manipulating the actual size of the animals they worked with (which is why Hammond had a little dog sized African elephant).

[@fabplays6559]

It was actually Utahraptors in Jurassic Park, not Deinonychus. :)

[@nikolazabunov6797]

​@@fabplays6559they were based on deinonychus ,but called velociraptors. Utahraptor was even bigger than the ones in the jp franchise,they are more with the size of achillobator or dakotaraptor, from what i know ...

[@ImVeryOriginal]

@@fabplays6559 Utahraptor wasn't even officially described when the book was written, and was much larger. The JP raptors were based on an upscaled Deinonychus, because one of the books Crichton used for research clasified it as a species of Velociraptor (and yeah, possibly also because he thought the name sounds better).

[@snake_girl_117]

I hope scientists bring dinosaurs back to life. i want one of these cuties. Look at all that fluff. i want to hold one

[@Badficwriter]

Imagining owners dumping Dinonychus yearlings in the wild because they grew up and stopped being cute and small enough to manage..

[@Mr.V1111]

Fortunately we will never bring dinosaurs back, at least, not pure ones. No matter the conditions, DNA completely breaks down after about 10,000 years and the dinosaurs have been gone for about 66 million so they are safely left in the past where we can't effect them

[@SvanhildMarieLarsen]

Dinosaurs with feathers and wings? They look like a missing link between reptiles and birds. And their babies are adorable...!💖🐾

[@spitfirebird]

Birds are literally dinosaurs, and dinosaurs themselves are technically reptiles, just more birdy ones, as they are archosaurs. Yes even ornithischian dinosaurs are more birdlike than what we traditionally thought, showing parental care and flocking/herding, as well as some having actual beaks and gizzards full of gastroliths used to further break down their food.

I've recently found that these babies could actually have a form of flight, though i've only found out from Wikipedia and Sanova the carno. I think this is very interesting as it shows that, like any other dinosaurs and others that the juveniles have a different role from their parents, and plus, this is really surprising. What do you think about this?
