I think the most unrealistic part of the DS9 episodes with the “sanctuary district” is actually the fact that the public display in San Francisco is in Celsius.
That’s a good question! Carnotaurus and other abelisaurs have ridiculously tiny arms:
Those two bones that look like the wrist? That’s the entire forearm.
There’s some indication that they may have been especially flexible, which could point to them being used in some sort of display or other intraspecific behaviour. It’s also quite possible that they just…didn’t really serve any function. They could just be vestigial – that is, an evolutionary “leftover” that just hasn’t had the pressure to evolve away (like kiwi wings, or whale hips).
reblog these illegal abelisaur arms while you still can. the info staff DOESN’T want you to know!
I bought a 9XL hoodie from King Size and it came today.
I have a baggy hoodie!
The sleeves are too long! The sleeves are never too long because my arms are 3″ longer than “standard sizing”!
It wraps all the way around my hips and can be zipped up!
just to be clear, I’m staying here as long as this site functions. I have 0 intentions of deleting this blog, I will go down with this ship if only to see exactly how bad it gets
