#sauropod anon

[legionofpotatoes]

sauropod conjecture is totally cool, but i have heard galapagos land iguanas lay their eggs in hot ash near fumaroles too (to this day!)

and I hope they know how fucking cool they are for doing that!!! most lizards of all time!

[oflostinfound]

They’re just a sauropod outside. Nibbling on food.

That is just a whole-ass gigantic dinosaur outside her cabin. Did it come from Alius Orbis? It didn't look to be one of the species from the plains... How did she not notice it approach before now? And why was it eating her garden?

|| 🔷 ||: ❝ N-Nice Sauropod- Please leave... ❞

This creature was going to attract a lot more unwanted attention to her house if it stayed.

[a-dinosaur-a-day]

On the topic of sauropods, what species does Littlefoot from The Land Before Time most closely resemble? And like, what’s the good and bad in that depiction. (There is no bad he’s my first blorbo and gateway Dino)

(I’m original sauropod anon 😁) 🦕

aldksjf;kjfds I would answer this except he's just kind of a generic sauropod

also like... idk, lbt is just soooooo outdated and innacurate it's just kind of not worth rating

that said, LBT is *very* important to me, it was one of my gateway dinos as well!

so, since I didn't give you a real answer, have a picture of me as a teenager with my little footplushie. I literally do not remember why I took the picture but it exists

4, 14 and 17! :)

Oh my god, apparently I somehow saved this as a draft instead of posting it? Unintentional, but also this is so long I refuse to proofread it before posting. Sorry to the brave anon who sent this. I saw it, I’m just also an idiot.

4. Oh okay no I see what happened, I forgot what this question was and saved as a draft to go get the actual question but then I got distracted. I think the question was like…bucket list aquariums or something?

The Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta! It’s one of the biggest in the world, and one of a small number to keep whale sharks! Also the Aquarium of Western Australia in Perth for reasons I’ll explain while answering 14.

Honorable mentions to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, which seems neat and heavily involved in conservation, and the Osaka Aquarium, which is both convenient and another of the few places to keep whale sharks but which I’m more cautious about due to Japan’s…lax perspective on animal ethics.

Incidentally, I’m not a particular fan of whale sharks (at least not any more than any other aquatic animal; they’re still neat) but an aquarium being able to keep them for several years indicates both an understanding of and a budget for keeping other aquatic life well.

14. What was an important, defining moment you’ve had with fish/aquatic animals?

I don’t feel like I had a specific important moment; rather, a lot of specific media gradually built together into an abiding passion for aquatic life.

There was something in the water in the early 2010s. There were four things that really stoked my passion for Fish.

The thing that really catalyzed it was Endless Ocean: Blue World, which is pretty much Fish: The Game. It was gorgeous (for its time) and did a good job introducing me to fish that weren’t typical aquarium fish (too bright, too same) or sharks (cool, I guess, but too sensational). As it turns out, there are all kinds of fish and they do all kinds of things. I particularly liked learning about deep sea stuff and still do because I like The Unknown.

Around the same time, I started watching River Monsters. I caught a bit of it on TV and fell in love. It had fish I recognized from Endless Ocean and it was (mostly) about being informational and scientific while still being narratively entertaining. At that time around me, fish were considered a hobby of rednecks (there was a lot of television about fishing that was very redneck, and I lived in an area that was decidedly Not Redneck) or the rich (who would go out on yachts and fish for billfish; these are who I lived around), and it was nice to see a television show that felt like it was for me and my interests.

Not too long after, Animal Crossing: New Leaf came out. Animal Crossing is many things, but to me it is a collector’s game. In that I use it almost exclusively as a fishing simulator, because that game is charming and it has Cool Fish and you can decorate your house with Cool Fish. This is self-explanatory.

But the most important one. The foundation. The godfather. Zoo Tycoon 2. I was just talking about that game with a friend the other night, and it was truly a boon for animal nerds everywhere. That game had a community that simply couldn’t exist these days. Both online and gaming culture have changed too much. Let me explain. Zoo Tycoon 2 was a pretty good game. Nothing groundbreaking. But. It had a format and source code that made it PRIME for modding. And so mod the world did. There were several forums in its glory days, and mods ranged in ability from “I took the base aardvark and made it red” to “I have lovingly rendered the world’s largest sauropod, adding several unique animations and behaviors and several hundred polygons”. And in these days, the internet would support you either way. Or at least the ZT2 community would. I can’t remember seeing a single disparaging post about something someone had created. There was one creator in particular (well, two, they were a team), Zeta Designs, who consistently made great stuff. Although I can’t find it anymore, they at one point embarked on a 1:1 recreation of the Perth Aquarium, creating new designs as necessary to reconstruct it. This right here is why I started getting interested in aquariums, and that’s what led me into the rest.

17. Do you keep an aquarium or an outside pond? If so, what animals (or lack thereof) do you keep?

I no longer do! I had to leave my aquarium behind when I moved to Japan, and that was very sad. I’d keep an aquarium now but my apartment won’t allow anything over five gallons. With that said, the aquarium I had was a 29 gallon with a pair of pearl gourami, a pair of ropefish, and some oto cats. I’d have wanted some more ropefish (they like friends) but I couldn’t afford a bigger tanks, so that was the best I could do. Actually, one of my proudest moments in fishkeeping was when I went to buy a new ropefish (one of them died during a terrible winter storm where my house lost power for a week, but it actually died in the fish daycare I sent it to because they have a nasty habit of jumping out of tanks and disappearing) and the fish store owner was like “I dunno kid, these guys are real hard to take care of and I’d hate to see see you coming back a week from now looking for another. How can I trust that you’ll be able to keep it alive?” And I was like. Uh. Well. I’ve kept a couple of them for three years now so I hope I’m good enough at keeping them alive. And the guy goes “Damn, three years? Arright buddy you’re golden, you’re better at keeping fish than 90% of my customers.” Dude got MUCH more talkative after that, I’m pretty sure I’d have been there for hours if my dad wasn’t waiting in the car.

hey it's anon!

My favorite dinosaur is the ankylosaurus! I love them. They are so cute and cool. The armor is so cool, and so is the tail club.

After the ankylosaurus my favorites are the pachycephalosaurus and the velociraptor. Pachycephalosauruses are so cool. They skull being up to 9 inches thick is insane! I also love velociraptors they were my first ever favorite dinosaur.

Honorable mention to the mamenchisaurus! I always love the sauropods.

As far as yellowjackets characters go my favorites are lottie and callie. I love both of them so much. I also love shauna and nat as well.

i love dinosaurs and yellowjackets!!

Then we're gonna be great friends!

Dinos are so fucking cool im not even kidding. To think that these large lizard/bird like creatures roamed the earth before us is mind blowing!

My favorite ever is the spinosaurus, but before begin discovered as a giant lizard duck. I mean, I know he was, but I thought he'd look at least a little bit cooler😂.

Then again, I like the velocitaptors and diplodocus. I love the fact that most of them were found out to be actually very flamboyant predators, with both T-rex and velocitaptors having feathers. Imagine a murderous tank running up to you covered in feathers.

Honorable mentions: pachicelophasaurus (dude that gives headbutts), archeopterix, cryolophasaurus, mosasaurus, plesiosaurus (NESSIE!) and of course, Mayasaurus 😂

And as for yellowjwckets, my favs are Lottie and Jackie. I love both of their personalities and find myself more in Lottie than anyone.

I'd love for you to tell me your favorite dinosaurs and yellow jackets characters!!

To Jimin, all he saw was a man dedicated to his work. It struck him differently to see the photos printed on a large format. His drunken self doesn’t even process the fact that his was the only subject matter displayed on Jungkook’s studio walls. His wide eyes transfixed on the fine details of each photo as he followed them down the line. It’s proof, Jeon Jungkook is the most dedicated photographer he’s ever had the pleasure of working with. (1/2) 🦕

“Which is your favorite?” Jimin asks, mentally taking note to possibly replicate the same expression in their impromptu shoot. He really wants to make the moment perfect. (2/2) 🦕

Jungkook hummed as he himself barely paid attention to the photos on the walls, his attention instead tunnelvisioned on the blonde being right next to him in the flesh, ‘’I think tonight.. will be my favourite.’’ He murmured, letting go of the elder to head over towards the spot he just knew he needed to see Jimin on, grasping the camera by the desk on the way. As if this had been prepared in advance, a large, furry white rug was placed on the floor in the middle of the copious amount of space, some lights placed around it as if there had been a shoot here before. Which wasn’t the case, technically. It was done with Jimin in mind, but never did he believe he’d actually have him here.. This quickly.

‘‘Stand on the rug,’‘ Jungkook instructs, his voice more clear now even if he’s still in a haze, beckoning the elder with his tattooed, slender fingers.

[iamthekaijuking]

and right off the bat prehistoric planet is already outdated, it shows sauropods rearing on their hind legs which they can't do, and shows an obsolete carnotaurus model since we now know it had no osteoderms and had longer keratin on its horns

Okay so?

That’s just what happens with paleontology. Science marches on and eventually the most up to date stuff gets outdated.

Right now though PP is the most up to date documentary we have.

Also who’s to say sauropods didn’t briefly rear up like elephants, and baby sauropods almost certainly ran on their hind legs.

For the carnotaurus thing. Yeah those weren’t osteoderms, but they were still large ornate scales.

[dinodorks]

have you seen the titanosaur skeleton in NYC? My sister lives there and we saw it and it was just massive

I have indeed! I’ve been lucky enough to see it twice since it was installed and wow is it ever impressive! It really puts into perspective how giant dinosaurs could get.

And for those wondering, this is the skeleton in question;

(Image source)

Yes, it stretches through 3 rooms.

In the Pokerus AU, it wasn’t until I watched those Primal clips that I realized just how much DAMAGE the feral transformed must be doing to themselves. Starvation, obviously, is big, both causing its own damage and slowing healing, but also the damage they take just by existing as a maddened beast in the first place! Never resting, always patrolling, hunting and worse, failing those hunts, as their (not Dawn) prey can defend themselves more competently than the ferals can attack. 1/?

Hey anon would this be a bad time to mention that I can vividly picture the larger Wardens (Palina, Ingo, Gaeric, Iscan, etc) just ramming through obstacles like trees and ice instead of going around them, because that also would not help!

Oh and don't forget the self-destructive behaviors such as biting or clawing at themselves! However I can see them resting for a time. Not like sleeping, but like "I need to pass out for several hours".

And for the record, they do NOT get as damaged as the Mad Sauropod from the Primal episode. No exposed bones or organs, but definitely a lot of wounds. It's amazing they can keep pulling through with so much energy...its almost like its coming from somewhere...

Alright Interns, I'm not gonna lie I had a blast making the last one of these whatever you call these things. So for this one your given one billion dollars to keep any of these cuties as a pet for an entire day. No powers, just your wits and own devices. Loved the responses you gave for the last one, so I'm looking forward to ypur responses for these guys.

1. T-Rex ( Jurassic Park)

2. Thanator ( James Cameron Avatar)

3. Leshen ( Witcher 3, great game btw highly recommended it author and Interns)

4. Xenomorph Queen ( Aliens)

5. Infected Sauropod ( Genndy Tartakovskys "Primal" amazing show definitely put it on your radar)

6. Cujo ( Stephen King)

[Lizzie] Y'see, this anon gets it. Set up some rules and limitations. Now we got a challenge on our hands.

[Adam] I'll take Roxy the T-rex. If I have to go out, I'll go out in blaze of glory into a dinosaurs stomach, thank you very much.

[Lizzie] Same choice, same reason. But when he eats me, I'll just go - (holds out middle fingers) - while screaming 'highway to hell' by ACDC.

[Norma] I think I could tame the Thanator. I'll take my chances.

[Gisu] I love dinosaurs. I'll take either the Rex or the Sauropod.

[Sam] I'll take the dog. I can use Zoolepathy to reason with him.

[Morris] And I can see you succeed in that too. I'll take the Xenomorph Queen. I love the 'Aliens' movies, so I'd love to be taken out by my royal favorite monster.

Jimin straightens his posture to give the best impression as it seems this man is not only the one about to stick needles in his flesh, but also a good friend of Jungkook’s. As he’s quickly gathered, it’s a rare occasion to meet anyone Jungkook would call friend. Jimin can only imagine what he makes of his relationship with the photographer. Namjoon’s dark-lined eyes hold firm on Jimin’s, almost softening to put him at ease. “Park Jimin,” he smiles, “it’s nice to meet you.” 🦕

‘’Likewise,’‘ Namjoon smiles back, his prominent dimples on display. He headed towards his desk to pick up the sketch he was working on, beckoning for the two younger boys to come closer, ‘’Check this out.’’ Jungkook stepped beside Namjoon to take a look. ‘’Perfect,’‘ He cooed, doe eyes observing the beautiful flower that Joon had sketched down on the paper. ‘‘Great,’‘ Namjoon smiled wider, showing Jimin the sketch. It was delicate drawing of red petals from the red sage flower, the meaning behind it being ‘Forever mine.’.. Joon already knew this is what Kook wanted for this one, always something floral, always different meanings behind them. This one; was the most meaningful one he’d ever done. One more flower about to be added to Jungkook’s collection on his arms.
