The saddest thing in growing up is that nobody asks you which dinosaur is your favourite anymore
Very very true! Kids these days think dinosaurs are for little kids and cringe. As a middle schooler it’s especially difficult being a dinosaur fan
Which dinosaur is your favorite?? Mine is spino.
@@Lord_of_Proboscidea and yours?
@@parden3743 Mine is good ol Ankylo. Tough, giant boi and to me seems to be, like, the anti carnivore. Like, it's like this big ol boy came into being just to piss off Carnivore mains. "You wanna bite into my flesh or surprise attack me? Eh, fuck you buddy, I have a literal back shield, I smelled ya from a mile away, and I have *A FUCKING BRICK* connected to my tail. This is pretty much overkill. Get fuck'd."
@@Lord_of_Proboscidea I can relate to you so much when I was in secondary school everyone made fun of me for loving dinosaurs that I had lost Interest in them but that’s when years later I got back into them.
Triceratops: Good defense, but not smart enough for A Tier
Ankylosaurus: Is even dumber, *but is also invincible*
Smh
Its armor is dummy thicc
Hey, who needs brains when you got a literal hammer attached to your tail?
No matter how dumb you are, when your offence is A tier and your defense is S tier, you are extremely unlikely to be killed.
Well... why would you need brains for an almost omni-directional defence? And why would you develop a solely forward defence if you have no brains to aim it with?
I honestly really want a remake of this one. Some of these facts feels outdated today and the possibility of new contenders would be interesting
Based
A revision on Spinosaurus is much needed!
Agreed. I think the choice for F tier was unfair as well. I feel like one of the D tiers should have been swapped with the f. Since that f tier one actually didn't sound awful. I have heard stories about people who have ran it and had a positive play experience. So perhaps it isn't so bad?
@@Katonato Spino wasn't F
@@Stofferex talking about dryosaurus and camptosaurous
Ankylosaurus: is vulnerable to being flipped over or having its belly attacked
Also Ankylosaurus: I'm going to dig a defensive position just to deny you both of those options
*"I am fortifying this position"*
- Rogal dornosaurus
ah yes, the sauropod strat:
Plan A: be really big, if that fails
Plan B: have allies who are just as big
Basic, but it works.

@@overheaven8684 yup the are attacking their own server
@@overheaven8684 looks like the new leader finally got hold of it i hate the american server anyways i actually hoped that server would collapse and me as in asian server would have no problem with it if anything i would enjoy that server collapsing
That bit on Spinosaurus has aged like fine milk.
With the more recent discoveries of Spinos aquatic adaptations, I think it needs to be moved up a tier or two.
Same with hadrosaurs
@@MrSuchomimus9 Bruh tierzoo downplays the Hadrosaurs
Man Edmontosaurus and Shantungosaurus were tanky well not to the same degree as the sauropods and ankylosauruses but still tanky none of the less and they have thumb spike that make any carnivore think twice before attacking.
YES
@@VladiusCurze To be fair majority of the hadrosaur clips are from Jurassic Fight Club
Yeah, Spino was less of a sucky land carnivore and more of a mildly high tier Mega croc with a big fuck off sail. I'd definitely place it in either A tier or B tier, mostly due to it being essentially a giant bipedal croc without the death roll attack.
Man, those were the days, I played on the ocean sever, also known as "the forgotten server" - some crazy things went down there, a friend of mine hacked the server and got this weird double row of teeth on his Mosasaurus, the Devs just didn't care. :D
That sounds like a crazy glitch, must have been pretty op
Hey I was there holy cap that was fun
@@Voidmaster999 yeah i played it too...bruh it gobbled up an entire t-rex in one bite
Yeah man I knew this guy who took it really crazy and kinda bend his whole bottom jaw into a circle it was weird times man.
Didn't really play much in those days, everyone was super tryhard-ish and sweaty and if you went on the mic there'd be no words, just constant screaming and yelling. I kinda just picked Isopod and went super deep in the ocean trying to get that neat little achievement "Go to Australia" without actually needing to be there, you just need to be on the other half of the planet you spawned at, so I really just went super deep underwater, found this map called the Marinara Trenchitus, was one of the top 100 to get this achievement.
Everybody gangsta until a sauropod goes bipedal.
My puny brain can handle such inhuman knowledge
Oh no.
Right?
why is no one talking about the zelda reference
Kkkkkkkk real
Tier Zoo: *puts Spinosaurus in D tier*
Spinosaurus Fans: So you have chosen death
YES. Because his info and logic were dumb af. It was the largest terrestrial and aquatic predator in its area, and dominated every challanger there. But somehow he got "bodied" actual clown 🤡
Puts crocadilians S tier
Puts spinosaurus D tier
I used to body people with spinosaurus if you use him right you could destroy anyone but man puts him at D tier patch 1.3.1 was litterally made to nerf spinosaurus they broke the game but they only D tier
That's how I feel too. Spinosaurus had aquatic specializations but it wasn't as flawed as Tier Zoo thinks it was. It was big enough to steal kills from most other predators in its area when need be and was an even match for the Carchorodonts, I should know, I played as a Spinosaurus and did well as I supplemented my diet with stolen kills when need be.
@@girlgarde Yeah same lol. I played with spinosaurus ALOT. (khm i researched it) and it was literally unmatched on its turf. It dominated the water and dominated the land. Quite simply it was well rounded af. Had serrated and connical teeth with a solid 3 ton bite force, it had size height, length and weight surpassing any known carnivorous dinosaur, also those god damn strong af claws and arms which did most the damage. It was surprisingly really fast because of its size and intelligent. Spino deserves S or A tier 100%
I was sad but i understand lol spino weak but he big and thicc :D
Fun fact: the "Bee Hummingbird" is a class still around in the current patch that is referred to as "the world's smallest dinosaur."
yeah
Okay, but this list DOES need a slight update. New datamining has concluded that the Spinosaurus strategy was actually quite different, and was much more heavily aquatic than earlier deep dives revealed. In that case, that means that the Spinosaurus build should be higher tier- if it was specifically adapted to an aquatic playstyle and stayed within aquatic zones, it would have been much more viable.
Not to mention trike party limit being raised
I don't know, this TierList seems way outdated.
Prehistoric even.
Ha ha....
XD
All joking aside i have to agree, Allosaurus was more powerful in my opinion than a B tier, and Utahraptor..? Maybe the most op Dinosaur was Utahraptor as it hunted in packs and was MASSIVE compared to most pack hunters (i guess besides T. Rex, but i think forcing your child to distract an opponent while you kill it is a little cheap), and it could jump with the giant toe hooks attributed to Velociraptor Deinonychus, which earns it a very powerful and dangerous spot IMO
Of course, this is the internet, since when did opinions matter
Take my like and get out
Yeah, it is though. Triceratops is actually just a low level Torosaurus in disguise, Tyrannosaurus' scavenger playstyle is probably a myth, Spino's bit dated.

I actually got a heart YES, Ive been binge watching your videos the past few days keep up the great work!
LonelyFN ...
LonelyFN YO CONGRATS ON THE HEART MAN
While this is one of my favorite videos by TierZoo being a Dino lover myself, I think this one definitely deserves a remake. Given all the new information that came out after its release that would drastically change the tier, but as well as addressing some of the things that were already inaccurate when this video was made. Probably the most notable being that Allosaurus "axe jaw" hunting method, raptors pack hunting to take down massive prey, and Troodon being a nomen dobium. (And Hadrosaurs kinda got done dirty)
Yeah! Adult edmontosaurus were larger than tyrannosaurus. Tyrannosaurus wouldn't have even tried to kill an adult edmontosaurus!
And spinosaurus was more for an aquatic life style meaning it wasnt so similar to the jp3 spino.
Not to mention the Tyrannosaurus has more tricks than were stated here. Quiet walking and sharp senses and so forth.
And hadrosaurs are POWERFUL!
Games + zoology = superior youtube channel
Their information on hadrosaurs and raptors was completely incorrect. They use clips from “Jurassic fight club”.
They are not educated in paleontology in the slightest. This video was not an informative work, do not view it as such.
@@StormAndMore yup i know, not so sure if the other vids are accurate but am farely certain they are,

As an Elephant player in the Mammal faction, I really respect the Soropod build.
As a crow main yall are cool. Saw one when interacting with the "zoo" structure. That trunk threw me off guard, it's a way better weapon than expected.
Sauropod*
As a Dragon player in a fangame, I really wish my favorite class would be modded into vanilla gameplay, it would literally make me the happiest player in the game.
@@Rubywing4 fire breathing capabilities would completely ruin the current meta
@@poser.3389 I'm not saying the dragon class has to come with fire breathing, it would be cool, but I would be happy enough with just a big reptile that can fly with its wings, even if it's like a wyvern that has wings for arms instead of a classic dragon with 4 legs and 2 wings, coz wyverns would be more realistically able to fly than classic dragons.
Though if a dragon build would ever be modded into the game, it would make more sense if it was a small wyvern, probably with hollow bones like birds (and bats? do bats have hollow bones too?), and big wings, probably about the size of an eagle or something, maybe even smaller.
A possible way to add the firebreath ability could be to copypaste the bombardier beetle's Stink Cloud ability but insert the stink glands into the mouth of the wyvern instead of the rear, so it can spray a blue acid stinky cloud from its mouth similar to how a spitting cobra sprays venom from its fangs.
Of course, this would probably result in the Bad Breath debuff, but perhaps the insides of the dragon's mouth could have a slime coating of sorts that protects it from damage by its own attack.
One possibility is also to copypaste birds' inability to taste capsaicin, which allows them to eat spicy foods without problem, and that could be a component in the dragon's breath ability, while it would be unable to taste the spiciness itself and thus not be bothered by its own spicy, stinky, acidic breath.
And since they would be small, there would definitely be predators trying to grief them, and that's what the breath ability is for: self defense.
I imagine they would mostly feed on fish and small mammals and birds, and fight raptors and medium-sized builds like foxes, cats and wolves over territory, the biggest prey they would be able to take down might be hares, or deer if they are social builds that live in flights (obviously a group of dragons would be called a flight).
Dragons would be so interesting to mod into the game, to both feel like dragons and at the same time not completely ruin the meta, by making realistic traits that could work.

You can't teach me anything, I've already seen Dinosaur Train.

Huzzah! A man of quality!
Oh my god, I completely forgot about that show, that show was awesome.
Dear ol' Mrs. Ptaranadon!
We’re gonna riiiiiide the dinosaur train.
The myth of allosaurus’s battle axe has a very prevalent hinderance; something called the lower jaw
doubt B tier does T.rex justice
to start off they had absurdly a overpowered sense of smell, sight and hearing perhaps one of the greatest in game. They were also quite intelligent and had an enlarged cerebrum giving them advanced cognitive abilities. Their eyesight was 6 times better than hawks and could see up to 6 miles.
Their arms were not entirely useless as their small size served a purpose. it reduced excess weight while allowing for a large and heavy head without sacrificing agility needed to hunt its prey. they had powerful jaws which could kill many low or even mid-level dinos in a single hit. Their speed was slightly more than that of an average human but in exchange they were endurance runners capable of chasing prey over large distances with ease. They were also built like tanks with thick muscles and were more than capable of surviving bites from other rexes during territorial skirmishes. the main reason for a higher spot is that they were some of the few animals to create a carnivore gap as trexes served every other niche available during different stages in their life. the only other carnivores were small dromeosaurs which were 1/20th their size
I feel the same with coelophysis they are a tier
most large carnivores have small hand too t rex hand are not weak they just too small to use if you wanna see small and pathetic arm look at carnotaurus
He has a point in that the T-Rex is 100% reliant on the bite and can be countered by heavy armour or blunt attack force, but they were still extremely successful with an almost unstoppable bite, they're A-Tier minimum.
@@GespenstDesKommunismus most like A+ the sauropod is braindead and unfair for other dino ngl
@@havyduong3676 T-Rex is slightly superior to the Sauropod in intelligence, but the Sauropod also didn't need that much intelligence. They didn't have to hunt nor actively try to evade predators as they could just eat plants and kick off any predator they find. Even if a predator like T-Rex would evade a few tailswings and kicks, one bite could not possibly one hit such a sturdy build like a grown Sauropod, whereas a single Sauropod stomp will knock out the comparatively small and light T-Rex.
When the only counterplay option for your build is “kill it while its young” I thing you have a good build
Solid build ...so strong that only weakness they have is only in their juvenile stage
Same for humans
Cause of abort lol
Although you get killed while you are still on aloading screen, so you can just restart basically imediatly so it's not that bad
@@fgdbbddhhdhdj1591 Abortion isn't that bad. For one, you haven't even started your playthrough yet so you can simply restart with ease. On top of that, you do not need to worry about any trauma or damage that would otherwise come to the mother player.
@@donaldbaird7849 not to mention that if they aborted, it was probably because they knew they couldn't use the parenting skill properly and didn't want to screw over a teammate....
1:02 Ah yes, my favorite dinosaur. The Boeing 737-900.
Sweddy Well, at least it isn't Bazeulgeuse.

It is rumoured that the top examples of the 737 species could fly for up to 5000 miles before they needed to touch the ground and feed to regain their strength. Truly amazing!
Really wondering if tier zoo could do a more modern version of this with the newer discoveries that have come out
a remaster of this tier list would be amazing. there’s so many unique play styles and abilities, and maybe just focusing on the strangest strategies

You can really see how much the game has improved. The graphics were way worse but with the new mammal expansion pack it adds a hole new perspective. All do respect to the game devs cause the dinosaur experience was certainly thrilling. As much as it would be fun to see a whole dino in the current version would be, I can clearly see how a more specialized/diverse play experience would be more efficient.

updated dino tier list
F tier -
D tier - camptosaurs and dryosaurs
C tier - coelophysis: they were one of the first dinosaurs introduced to the game. They were small slender bipedal carnivores. They earn this spot for their survivability being able to outcompete synapsids bringing the dinosaurs to their glory.
Stegosaurus: stegosaurs mostly focused on high defense and offense and thus had to sacrifice their other stats namely intelligence and mobility. Its back plates reduced the chance ofa crit from attackers and could be flushed with blood to raise their intimidation. Their tale spikes which were given the name thagomizer from the community had one of the highest crit chances in game. Though they were relatively safe in a one on one they still lost when being mobbed by mid tier carnivores.
B tier - spinosaurus: It is a specialist which invested in aquatic features allowing them to rule the rivers of their time. It was the longest theropod and had many unique abilities such as paddle tail, electroreception and sharp conical teeth to aid in capturing fish. This creature also cohabited with carcharadontosaurus and since they hunted different prey, mostly just lived alongside them.
Hadrosaurs : These builds are often overlooked for their simplistic playstyles, however they were quite an effective build. You see hadrosaurs such as parasauralophus and lambeosaurs were large enough that they did not have to worry about attacks from smaller predators, only being threatened by mid tier carnivores. Even then they could simply rely on their mobility to escape. Some builds such as edmontosaurus grew as large as Trex making them difficult to take on.
Triceratops: These were the premiere tank builds of the late cretaceous, sporting both high attack and defense along with decent mobility. Their only predators were giant carnivores builds such as Trex. Their main drawback came from low intelligence. While juveniles moved around in small groups adults were mostly solitary
Dromeosaurs: These group of theropods opted to forego gigantism and opted for a build centered around mobility and damage. most notably they had one sickle claw on each foot allowing them to perform a special move known as raptor prey restraint allowing them to gain exp without actually defeating the oponent. While larger builds such as the utahraptor were dominant, they could not take on the more larger builds in the meta.
A tier - Allosaurus: These were the top predators of the jurassic sporting high damage and mobility. They were quite fast in short bursts of speed making ambushing other players an easy feat. they had relatively low bite force compared to other high tiers but they made up for it with their powerful necks enabling them to rip out chunks from other players. Often times allo players would come together in loose gangs to take down high level prey items such as an already wounded sauropod player.
Therizinosaurus: These players from the theropod faction opted to spend all their evolution points on the claw skill tree providing them the largest claws in the game. Unlike every other theropod they opted to become herbivores. This made it so that they did not have to compete with other predators for food and were extremely good at defending themselves. Though vulnerable to attacks from multiple sides they made a succesful build that no one expected
Carcharadontosaurus: These theropods opted for powerful grasping claws and serrated teeth. Their plan of attack was to bleed out their prey. This was aided by their sharp teeth which were designed like blades designed to slice apart flesh.
Ankylosaur: These tanks builds essentially took all the stats of stegosasurs and cranked them to extremes. Their armor could stop all manner of attacks and their tail clubs could shatter bone. Though not a perfect defense as they were still vulnerable if flipped, ankylosaurs were a strong build, definitely above average.
S tier - T.rex: These apex predators towered over their competition during the cretaceous meta dominating the north american server. It had the most devastating bite attack in the whole game able to one shot most mid and even some high tier's. They had small arms which were useless in combat but aided in making Trex more agile as it could turn faster than other theropods its size. While not the fastest dinosaur, being only slightly faster than a human they make up for it with their amazing endurance, allowing them to chase prey over long distances. T.rex was so dominant that during its reign there were no other predators even close to its size in its region. The next largest predators being dakotaraptors which were a fifteenth of its size. They were also one of the smartest dinosaurs which was rewarded with them possessing broken hearing, smell and one of if not the best sense of sight in terrestrial servers. They also had high defense as their robust build made them excellent at PVP which they needed during territorial fights. All this makes it a true S tier
Sauropods: The true titans of the Mesozoic, these behemoths were the largest dinosaur builds of all time and by extension the largest terrestrial build of all time. They had the maximum HP for a terrestrial build and were untouchable when moving in herds. These builds size gave them an advantage against stealth builds and possessed the most devastating move in game, their stomp attack which could one shot any other build of its time. They did have low mobility and the food required to sustain them always had them on the move. While not invincible as they could still get taken down, they were mostly untouched by many predator builds. Their early game was difficult as sauropods tended to lay hundreds of eggs and not care for low level players but once they reached high levels they were virtually untouchable making them S tier
Nice one, I like it 👍
Even though, I think campto and dryo should be in D: I consider F to be something like "this thing doesn't do anything good and will go extinct soon"
Finally spino and T. rex get what they deserve
I think Trex is A tier, it was usually scared off by trikes and ankylosaurids, not to mention sauropods
There is only one genus that deserves S tier, those are sauropods
@@ddarkon1223 that's basically for every predator. Just because it gets scared off doesn't make it worse.
@@GabiteEditz it wasn't that effective against fast prey
I’ve always wondered how anyone knows anything about how they acted or how smart they were.
The short answer is that we have no idea how they actually acted. They had long claws on their legs? They must have used them to jump on their prey. In reality it might well be they were some kind of herbivore that cracked nuts or something. Hell, many dinosaurs of the same species were mistaken for different species just because they died at different stages of life. How smart they were is measured by comparing their brain size to their body size, but it's not foolproof. It doesn't take into account how those brains were structured or how dense they were, but it gives a rough estimation.

4:26 Contrary to the video, hadrosaurs were very capable of defending themselves if needed. Large species like _Edmontosaurus annectens_ were a bit taller than Tyrannosaurus, it's main competitor, and on average weighed more than it too, being about 1 to 2 tons heavier
Their weapons were as said in the video, a thick hide which I think is underestimated here, their front and back leg kicks being quite powerful due to the help of their mass, and their large tails which were very sturdy and could shatter a tyrannosaurus' ribs. Another example is the once thought fodder Parasaurolophus, which shared grounds with Daspletosaurus, Tyrannosaurus' closest known ancestor was around 8 tons and a very capable build too.
If anything, I'd move the hadrosaurs up to B or A tier because of being able to survive and adapt so long with predators such as Tyrannosaurus.
Daspletosaur is not T rex ancestor but a close relative
I think todays game is the best its ever been. I like the shift towards smaller, but more complex builds and strategies. I think the rise of team strategies is the most fun aspect of the game. I love getting the bois together as a bee colony and taking down bear bosses.
We are currently in a mass extinion event caused by human activity eradicating all but human approved biodiversity. Not only that but we also causing climate change with unforceeable consequences. And don't get me started on a possibility of a nuclear winter. The small builds only exist because everything larger got eaten.. by us. Give it another 1000 years and the Earth is done

Another thing to note about Therizinosaurus is that its claws were fragile.

Tier Zoo: *puts Tyrannosaurus on B tier*
Jurassic Park fans: You have lost life privilege
Dieter Gaudlitz YES FINALY SOMEONE MENTIONED THIS BESIDES ME!
Dieter Gaudlitz it was mainly put in B tier due to laughable claw range and subpar stealth.
The problem with the rex is that he's a "mini-maxing" strategy : everything was put into a single attack move (the bite attack), leaving everything else aside. It proved effective as it gave him the most powerful bite ever seen, and unlocked "bone-crushing", but some evolution points could've been better spent.
Besides, he had a terrible matchup against a lot of builds in his Era : with hadrosaurs vanishing from the Meta during Cretacious the T-rex only had tank builds left to prey upon, like Triceratops, Ankylosaurus, etc... Or small speedy builds, like Pachycephalosaurus, and he wasn't optimised to take down any of them easily : too slow to catch the small prey (and they wouldn't give him much XP anyway), but no reliable way of taking down tanks easily.
A T-rex had as many chances of killing it's prey as he had to die trying to do so 1v1, and for a predator it can be problematic
@Dieter Gaudlitz The thing is : T-rex favorite meal, Edmontosaurus, disappeared long before the end of the cretaceous (or at least we haven't discovered fossils more recent than 70 million years ago). Which means that at one point : the T-rex lost access to his favorite meals.
As for "Why do I assume T-rex would've attacked them alone?". For the same reason that you assume that they always attacked in pack : fossil records. There are many evidences of T-rex sustaining injuries delivered by triceratops's horns (as well as ankylosaurus of course). Injuries that, in some cases, were lethal to the animal. If they ALWAYS attacked in pack, these type of injuries wouldn't be observed, as there would be no reason for a rex to attack the triceratops head-on and exposing himself to the horns.
So, same as triceratops were mainly solitary but sometimes could form small herds, I believe T-rex was mainly solitary but could also form packs, especially in the end of their reign where prey were much harder to take down.
So there were probably more cases of T-rex trying to hunt triceratops alone than doing so in packs, especially knowing, as you said, that their social structure was very basic
Its kinda pay2win but if you shell out 4.99 you can upgrade your T. Rex into the Indominus Rex which is so ridiculously broken that it isnt even included on the tier list.
Sauropods have always been my favorite dinosaurs!! I’m so glad they’re top tier they’re so wonderful

This tier list really needs an update in light of recent advances in paleontology. The fact that dinosaurs here are all depicted more like featherless reptiles rather than of typically feathered therapods they were is the most glaring.
I didn't start playing till pretty deep into the mammal meta so I was not expecting sauropods to be S tier, evidently they had a lot of abilities I didn't know about

You did not mention it, but I think the Tyrannosaurs should be at least one tier higher due to its intelligence. Recent studies have discovered that the Tyrannosaurus had an incredibly high level of intelligence that was equal to, or even slightly above that of a chimps. If you combine their intelligence with their strength, and the possibility that they might have hunted in groups, they should definitely be rated at least one tier higher.
In fact most professionals agree that the T-Rex was among the top 5 most intelligent dinosaurs ever.
The T-Rex's intelligence wasn't even close to that of chimps. It was high by dinosaur standards, but that's it.
Plant tier list when!?! The most bodied meta needs to be heard!!! Also, really liked this vid.
Trees were literally invincible for a very long time before things learned to digest and eat them
My guys, this is Tier Zoo(ology), not Tier Botany.
@@Jeffk1 yes but there ability to regrow made that mostly negligible.
There were a pretty good build for players that wanted to play calm and long-term, but only until humans learned to craft and later unlocked the chainsaw. That was basically the end of many tree builds and now less and less players choose to play them because trees usually get abused by humans for quick xp
@@Jeffk1 Lets not forget about some of the more... interesting builds. The Tree of Heaven, able to regenerate its entire self unless all traces of it are removed, including after being cut down. The Birdcatcher Tree, able to trap new avian players and kill them, getting free exp from their decomposition. The Tumbleweed, which carries its own seeds in its dead corpse. The numerous amount of carnivorous plants (Venus Flytrap, Tropical Pitcher, Cape Sundew, Hydnora, Bladderwort) which are able to kill smaller insect builds (some of the larger ones even being able to kill small mammals and birds). The Strangler Fig, who seeks out trees and slowly sucks at their hp until the tree dies. The African Acasia, which is able to communicate with other African Acasia to make their leaves poisonous, and also can have a symbiotic relationship with an army of ants who will attack anyone who comes near. The Touch-Me-Not, with an ability similar to that of the turtle, snail, or armadillo builds. Just to name a few. As well as one of the most OP abilities in the game, able to get free xp during the day period with no need to hunt or graze, as well as absorb more xp from the ground. It is a damn shame that plants are so underrated, mostly by players who would rather play a fast and action packed game. Plants require more strategy, are harder to get into, and are more about spawning new plants than about survival, so the community pretty much ignores them, seeing them as free loot if at all. Same with fungi, but for some reason the animal players seem to find those at least somewhat more interesting.
@@tyrannus00 Sadly trees get less and less viable the more humans invest in technology and expansion. Nowadays a lot of them are just NPC bots that were generated when the humans took over an area, grow in lines and waiting to be cut down, so that the humans can plant more. The worst thing to ever happen to plant players was when the humans discovered agriculture.

@@chucksolutions4579 Yep. Bunch of cavemen in a lecture hall with one at the projector pointing out the thagomizer...named after the late Thag Simmons.
So this
Triceratops had armoured plates under the skin made of bone in certain places along its back specifically on its shoulders and hips this gave it an added defence in case it was attacked from behind allowing it to Shrug off certain hits and Spinosaurus had large claws which it could use to defend itself so I think both of these should go up a bit
