bartshan-83 Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Stop undoing everything you taught me in childhood! Triceratops never really existed Well, I'm going to continue to believe in the Triceratops just like I believe Pluto is a planet and there are only 4 Food Groups. PS - No wonder they were so truculent...
DrDawkinstein Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 haha, the thread title cracked me up crazy that those things were just the BABIES of something bigger/older.
John Adams Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Actually, there are no longer torosauruses. They are now called triceratops. The only bad news is taht triceratops were bigger and had thinner necks. We're still safe.
Ramius Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Well, being called by the wrong name cold explain why they were truculent.
nick in* england Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Bad journalism. Triceratops lived! All torosaurus specimens will now be reclassified as triceratops, the scientists said. So instead of this headline: "DINO NOBODY HAS HEARD OF WAS IN FACT AN ADULT OF ONE THAT PEOPLE HAVE" you get the story the Mail printed...

Triceratops never really existed Well, I'm going to continue to believe in the Triceratops just like I believe Pluto is a planet and there are only 4 Food Groups. PS - No wonder they were so truculent... I'm with you on the Food Group thing. Included in the argument that pizza is the worlds most perfect food (it still is) was that when properly topped with pepperoni or sausage, it had all four food groups. Curse you progressive taxonomists! My friend has a 7 year-old daughter. She told her she had to "finish up her vegetables" before she could get dessert. The kid's response: "Mom, corn isn't a vegetable. It's a grain." How you gonna argue with that?
Jim in Anchorage Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 But the researchers say that the triceratops was just a young version of a treasures and its horns changed shape as the dinosaur aged. Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/art...l#ixzz0vY8RHILz I would like to read the original article. Horns cannot"change shape" they are as dead as your fingernails. They can only grow from the base.
BarkLessWagMore Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Well, being called by the wrong name cold explain why they were truculent. That is the funniest avatar ever!!! Great work.
bills_fan Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 As an aside, although related to the OP's topic, the Walking with Dinosaurs arena show is very well done. I took my family to see it at MSG last Friday night. Highly recommended. http://www.dinosaurlive.com/
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 If I' m not mistaken, Triceratops evolves into Torosaurus at Lvl. 35, or upon using a Moon Stone. It masters Horn Drill, an automatic KO, upon evolution.

The kid's response: "Mom, corn isn't a vegetable. It's a grain." How you gonna argue with that? Vegetable, fruit, grain, tuber...who cares? It's all what real food eats.

SDS Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Don't forget that the Brontosaurus never really existed... http://www.unmuseum.org/dinobront.htm
thebug Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Next they'll say there's no Santa Clause Don't even joke about that!
DC Tom Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Don't forget that the Brontosaurus never really existed... http://www.unmuseum.org/dinobront.htm Then what ate all the silicon plants?
el Tigre Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Carl Everett says NO dinosaurs ever exsisted. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Everett
