Abraham was from modern Turkey.
Maybe it'd be better if you put a chicken in this meme.
A flock of feral chicken could 100% take over a white American suburbs and in here for it
Idk if chicken would be appropriate for T-Rex, but idk of any other options either considering Cassowaries are Raptors, Shoebill maybe? But yeah Komodos have that T-Rex or Giganotosaurus vibe when they stand on 2 legs anyway.
I just figure there's a bunch of antisemetic conspiracies about lizard people, don't want right-wingers appropriating your meme.
Shoebill wouldn't be a great look for similar reasons.
Do people still unironically talk about these except Zuckerberg jokes?
Unfortunately, yes
Out of all birds, the Chicken is the closest relative to T-Rex
Fr? Bruh it can't be, I thought it was just a meme, it has to be some of those big badass birds unless actually true and he got the most insane downgrade in history unlike other dinosaurs.
They’re wrong lol.
I'm not wrong. Or at least I'm 99 percent sure I'm not. I've read this numerous times from paleontologists.
Birds share common ancestry with Dinosaurs, and are considered Dinosaurs. Not everything has to be big or badass
I know lmao, but not every dinosaur is a Cassowary nowadays, some got downgraded, it's just hard to imagine that out of all the chicken is the one who's closest to T-Rex.
Oh my bad, I didn't mean to seem dickish
That’s not how it works. All birds share a common ancestor that was a cousin to it, so they’re all equally related to it in terms of when they split off. For chickens to be more closely related to T. rex, they would have to share a more recent common ancestor with it than they do with other birds. That would also make T. rex a bird if you still wanted to count chickens as birds.
I guess paleontologists are wrong then.
Feel free to cite your source. If you're thinking of the idea that chickens may have more conservative genomes than most other birds, then I get where you're coming from, but we don't actually know what T. rex's genome looked like to be able to compare them. It's entirely possible that the T. rex genome would have changed in a lot of places where the chicken genome is relatively conservative, making chickens no more similar to T. rex genetically than any other bird is. That aside, all birds evolved from the same node on the cladogram, which was already pretty far removed from tyrannosaurs at that point. Saying chickens are more closely to T. rex than other birds are would be like me saying I'm more closely related to my great uncle (whose DNA we do not have) than my biological sibling is because I have 25.01% of his brother's - my grandpa's - DNA and my sibling only has 25%. It's not provable because we will never recover the DNA to know the overlap. Even if we could prove that, it would only demonstrate that we are more related in a very strict genetic sense and ignore that we are exactly as related in terms of shared common descent.
You have very fair points, but I do have a small amount of hope that one day we could find or recreate usable T-Rex dna.
Yes, I know that DNA degrades relatively quickly, and finding DNA more than a hundred thousands years old/ 1 million years old is incredibly rare, but I remember reading that in some edge cases that DNA has been found in cases of 1 million or 10 million years old, and around a decade or more ago, it was reported that possible cellular structures that may contain T-Rex DNA had possibly been found.
I wouldn't get my hopes up, and there are hundreds of potential problems though.
I'm not a paleontologist or geneticist though.
Monitor lizards are very distant to dinosaurs and Tyrannosaurus rex lived 66 million years ago. This is the perfect depiction of a zionist's understanding of their ancestry and the history of the land they stole
Komodo Dragons are Mosasaurus related, as are all other Monitor Lizards.
All this needs is to make the indigenous person a golden eagle, may not be such a direct relation to the supposed ancient ancestors but certainly more of a descendant than a lizard.
Ironically Dinosaurs are basically giant birds. Gators aren't
Komodo Dragon is not an Alligator but a Monitor Lizard😭. Which are Mosasaurus related.
Please dont compare israel to reptiles, lizards etc, this is like david icke shit
That's a fair point, but I think you are slightly reaching
