minus-squareShelbyeileen@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up74arrow-down1·1 年前I love stuff like this. Here are some real dinosaur/extinct creature names! Sauroniops: Literally means Eye of Sauron Dracorex Hogwartsia: Dragon King of Hogwarts Thanos Simonattoi: after Thanos Irritator Challengeri: he was hard to dig up and scientists were angry Gasosaurus: discovered while a gas company was being built. Gojirasaurus: self explanatory Attenborosaurus: plesiosaurus named after David Attenborough. Crichtonosaurus: similar to an ankylo and named after author of Jurassic Park Bambiraptor sounds cute, and it’s named after the deer (because it was deer sized), but it was a fierce and deadly creature. There’s so many more; I could nerd out forever. I miss when I was a little girl, and people would actually talk to me about dinosaurs…

minus-squareMouselemming@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 年前I feel excited because almost all of these are new to me. I love learning these kinds of new things that I won’t use daily and get bored, they’ll stay bright and shiny in a corner of my brain.
