[Dom Pedro II]

Hmmmm... far too many dinosaurs to choose from!

I can't believe all of these people know all of these different dinosaurs anyway. I guess I wasn't the only Dino freak as a kid.

Well, I'm going to go with Iguanadon. He gets a big THUMBS UP from me!

*Baddum tish!*




(For those who don't get it, Iguanadon is known for having a large spiked "thumb" that stuck up from its hand)

[Odin]

Iguanadon was also the ancestor of the duckbills (hadrosaurs), and was the first dinosaur to be discribed back in the early 1800's. The teeth of duckbills was made for grinding tough food, and the pads on thier hoeves, once mistaken for webs of skin, made them the antelope of the Late Cretaceous.

Edited for spelling

[Prometeus]

The most ancient tract of Gondwana's Camptosaurids Iguanodontidae are from Northern Italy, Lavini di Marco.

After thinking about it...

My favorite Dinosaur... Gwangi

Least favorite... Barney

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

Lipleurodon. A 150-tonne killing machine- the biggest predator ever.

[Dom Pedro II]

Technically though, Ron. It's not a dinosaur...

[Prometeus]

Jeremy, only Dinosaurs... Liopleurodon was not even a diapsid reptile like Dinos... It'as a plesiosaurs. Please revote.

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

It's got big teeth and it's extinct. That's near enough.

[Odin]

Ignorance is not always blis Ron.

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

Dear reader.

Please send help. I am being attacked be a pack of small and irritating reptiles who make incessant squeaking noises. I think they may be Pedantisauri.

[Odin]

You got pic of Lioplurodon from the BBC's Walking with Dinosaurs program, didn't you. I can tell by the graphics.

[Skanky Burns]

I think Ron just likes the position that "dinosaur" is in.

[Ikarus]

I also have a favorite herbivore and carnivore.

The greatest carnivore ever is the fascinating Troodon. Smartest dinosaur to have existed, so say the ever popular paleontologists.

[Ikarus]

The best herbivore to have existed was the remarkable stegosaurus of the Jurassic Period. This dinosaur was beautifully portrayed by Spike, in the classic series, "Land Before Time".
