Dinosaurs - Blog Posts

Today on "Memes I hope go viral so people stop equating Lizards and Dinosaurs": this chart!

A meme depicting a chart with four columns, showcasing whether or not particular traits are found in a majority of species for each category. On the far left column are the traits. The second from the left column is Lizards, with an Iguana image at the top. The third from the left column is Nonavian Dinosaurs, with a Kulindadromeus Image at the top. The far right column is Birds, with a House Sparrow image at the top. 

Overlapping Scales, the Tongue-Flick Thing, Shedding of SKin, and Tail Autotomy are all found in Lizards, but not the other two groups 

Interlocking Scutes, Feathers, Warm Bloodedness, Stiffened Tails, Lightweight Bones, Beaks, Upright Stance, and Digitigrade Posture are all found in Birds and Nonavian Dinosaurs, but not in lizards 

This showcases that lizards are nothing like dinosaurs, and dinosaurs are nothing like lizards - but all dinosaurs, whether avian or not, are a lot alike
