Drowning in stomach acid sounds particularly excruciating.

If it's any consolation, you would suffocate long before any stomach acid got to you.

I recall reading a meme about the ocean being bullshit, something along the lines of "the most common way to die on land is something making your blood fall out".

There's a reason the Romulan starship class was named Bird Of Prey.

It's a bird of prey.

Well, that sounds like a lot, until you realise that mfking seagulls can eat rabbits.

Your link mentions them weighing "a quarter of a ton". Now, idk what "ton" theyre using there, but a quarter of a US ton would be "only" 226 kg. That's ~500lbs.

I'd like to remind everyone that a reality TV-show called "My 600-lb life" exists.

So regarding hypothetical horror scenarios, I'm not too fussed about the overgrown seagull as much as I am about the feathered 4000-8000kg monster with a skull almost the size of an adult woman running at me at 70km/h.

Haha, another silly meme dinosaur

...

JESUS CHRIST THAT THING'S REAL?!?

As I learned yesterday, they are illegal as pets in Montreal.

we have found birdperson

Reminds me of the Wilddruden from the Ronja Räubertochter (Ronia, the Robber's Daughter) movie.

That first picture..

I have to agree

just like the average internet user.

In international standard SI units that's about 113 kg.

Das haben wir damals noch nicht gemacht, aber mittlerweile ist das ein MUSS für jeden anständigen Dino

There's a little of both in play here.

First, the whole black and white part of the illustration is a neck flap that may or may not have existed. It makes the neck look super thick, but it was just the artist's interpretation.

Second, penguins. Pterosaurs have big, hollow heads and skeletons that look like they should have flown. The same can be said of penguins.

Almost the entire weight of the animal on the drawing is between its wings, and by that human there, there are more than 10 m of wingspan. Many small aiplanes are smaller than it.

Pterosaurs had a very unusual body shape that is nothing like birds.

you can make anything fly if you strap a big enough rocket to it.

S'why I never understood the expression 'when pigs fly'. Like... do you really want me to abuse a pig?

My very quick research leads me to believe they have very little skeletal remains that they used to guess what this guy must have looked like. I could be wrong

They're first cousins: Quetzalcoatlinae

Apparently Arambourgiania are also Quetzal's sibling.

Fucking quesadilla birds...
