I'm no animologist, but dinosaurs are birds, and don't birds eat rocks and shit to aid in digestion? I just wonder how their digestive tract stands up to bones. Not shitting on anything here just want to make sure we all know how to kill this dinosaur right.
And obviously the distinction you made about cooking bones is interesting, I've boiled stock/broth of my own and snapped a wishbone or two, but never put that together so that's interesting.
Who are you, sir, so wise in the way of dinosaurs?
I want you on my team in the inevitable final showdown between us and the T-Rex
Oh no, we can keep exploring this purely lighthearted, good spirited, but also weirdly educational dialogue.
Some birds do eat rocks to help pulverize food, I think. Now modern birds don't have teeth, their stomachs are highly acidic to help them process their food (that's why their poop hurts car paint & you should wash it off ASAP). So...that makes me wonder how powerful dinosaur stomach acid would be, if it would have the strength to just dissolve the cooked bones before they could inflict damage. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Birds are dinosaurs, but dinosaurs aren't necessarily birds
The old square and rectangle situation.
