      Zion Ray no they’re not. Birds/Dinosaurs are warm blooded animals with unique and complex biological systems and organs and the unique, signature skin covering of feathers. Reptiles are the opposite of all that, and feature only scales, which differ from the type of scales found on birds and dinosaurs in the areas they lack feathers.

    My theory is that feathers are an ancestral trait of the Ornithodirans/Avemetatarsilans, the group that includes Dinosaurs and Pterosaurs, and that the feathers were used to keep them warm in the cold desert nights. But when the planet warmed up and the dinosaurs became huge, adult animals began to shed their feathers, at least when they were a certain size. But animals living in the North were obvious exceptions.

      They still are featherless. There was a movement that pushed back against that "theory".
      If anything, most findings are guesses at best. There is even an argument now that Triceratops (one of my faves) may have been a juvenile Torosaurus.

      Anything to do with dinosaurs is a guessing game. That tricerotops being a juvenile of torosaurus sounds like one.
      You have to wonder if paleontologist discovered fossils of polar bears and grizzlies/brown bear that were millions of years old they would come up with the conclusion that grizzlies are juveniles of polar bears as they live around the same time and same location.
      Lions and tigers also have very similair skulls and look so different and live differently as one is a pack hunter and the other solitary. Paleontologist might make same mistake with them as asiatic lions are found in india just like tigers.

      The few with feathers are exactly that, a few. Since when does this account for a good portion of the majority?
      This feather argument has been going on and is taken as and spoken of as FACT vs a hypothesis let alone a "theory" (or forbid) a law.
      Other than that, you've pretty much fleshed out what I've said regarding dinosaurs.
      The issue that I have is that people tend to hear something and take it as ultimate gospel vs looking at the evidence themselves and questioning how it fits on a bigger spectrum.
      "Oh you see that 3 meter bone right there? It belonged to a FACT-osaurus. The only one of its kind ever found, drastically incomplete. And it had feathers. Yeah that's right, that 3 meter bone that belonged to a multi-tonned animal had feathers! You want to know why? Because we found a complete fossil of something way smaller that had them and we ran with it. Thus they ALL (dinosaurs) had them. "
      That isn't a guessing game. That is totally different. Beyond assumption.
      Somewhere along the line the theory became scientific law and is being shouted at the public while weighted counter arguments are being whispered.
      I like dino's as much as any, but I like being able to think, reason and research for myself even better.

      You are pretending to know things that are not known, for what appear to be egocentric reasons. Dinos evolved from reptiles. It is not known when the first endothermic or partly endothermic animals evolved. I made a very simple statement and some insecure people here saw it as an opportunity to pretend to be paleontologists.
      The very first proto mammals had many traits that modern mammals do not have.

      Now, kindly take your ego and fuck off. You are wasting my time for no good reason.
      i was around in the early days of this discussion when Scientific American was printing early arguments for endothermic dinos.
      I always like the terrestrial dinos found in the very far north because they absolutely had to be warm blooded. They are also relatively recent discoveries.
      Now go talk to yourself,

      @@macnutz4206 dude, the only person being an asshole here is you. You said your point of view and me and the other person tried to engage in conversation with our own points of view. That's how debating works, you know, one of the basis of modern science
      At no point anyone has been disrespectful to you, all he did were ask for your sources, to see if you were actually right, and adapt their point of view in base of that
      You are the one who decided to take that as an ofense and started insulting and being disrespectful. Wich ultimately takes away credibility to anything you are trying to say, since it gives the image that you are unwilling to defend your point of view and unable to handle criticisim towards it.
      But, since you want to act all mighty, it might interest you to know that current evidence points at the ancestor of ALL dinosaurs to already be feathered, since pterosaurs, wich were the closest relatives to the dinosaurs, also seem to be covered in dinofuzz, wich could very likely mean that it was a trait that apeared before either of the two groups apeared. Therefore, is logical to think that all dinosaurs were endothermic, since, as you said, feathering doesnt make sense on a cold blooded animal
      I would sugest you try to come to terms that people can have ideas that contradict your own, instead of getting butthurt anytime someone's just mentions the oposite, or even just asks you what made you have that opinion.

      No dinosaur ever had fur. It's a trait found only in mammals and their relatives.

    This is probably a stupid question, but would dinosaurs still be considered reptiles? Given they have feathers and other filaments

    • @robertculen2949
      @robertculen2949 4 роки тому +5

      They certainly are! First one must understand that "reptile" doesn't have the same meaning in modern classification of animals that it used to.
      Birds evolved from certain theropod dinosaurs, so they are still technically dinosaurs. Dinosaurs, as well as crocodylomorphs (crocodiles and their wide variety of extinct relatives) and pterosaurs (pterodactyls and their wide variety of extinct relatives) all evolved from a particular group of true reptiles called archosaurs.
      Because of this, despite the fact that modern crocodiles and lizards for example may resemble each other superficially on the outside, crocodiles are genetically closer to birds. One of the important things about modern taxonomy (classification) is that you cannot outgrow your ancestry. Hence, despite having feathers, being warm blooded and challenging what the laymen thinks of as "reptilian," birds, along with all dinosaurs, are still considered reptiles.
      Mammals on the other hand, were never true reptiles at any point with their ancestry splitting before the first "true reptiles" evolved. We do however, have a closer ancestry with reptiles than reptiles do with amphibians.

    Hasn't recent analysis found Nanuqsaurus to be much closer to other tyrannosaurines like rex and tarbosaurus than previously thought?
