Birds are warm blooded vertebrates and therefore mammals, you retarded gays.
Since dinosaurs were warm blooded vertebrates, too, they were also clearly mammals.
I swear you degenerate brainlets wouldn't recognise science if it raped your already loose assholes.
A few degenerated species survive deep underground in air filled caverns in the Pacific Ocean. Magma provides light and warmth to them and they feed on crabs and dive to get fish.
It was one asteroid large enough to break the earth's crust and transfer enough energy into the plates that they're still moving 65 million years later.
So, ya.
>and transfer enough energy into the plates that they're still moving 65 million years later. >continental drift is because of the dinosaurs
you sóyntists really are something else
By definition reptiles are cold blooded.
Birds are not.
Therefore birds are not dinosaurs.
All mammals (excpet platypus and echidna) have 7 neck bones.
Giraffes have 7 neck bones.
Blue whales have 7 neck bones.
Mice have 7 neck bones.
Humans have 7 neck bones.
Because we have a common ancestor.
That do3snt mean humans are mice.
Just because birds MIGHT have evolved from dinosaurs does not mean they ARE dinosaurs.
Birds evolved from dinosaurs but once they transitioned to warmbloodedness they stopped being dinosaurs. If birds are dinosaurs then you're a coelacanth.
>Mammals evolved from synapsids but once they transitioned to warmbloodedness they stopped being synapsids. If birds are dinosaurs then you're a synapsid
birds are dinosaurs, mammals are synapsids, all of them are vertebrates, and bony fishes, and chordates....

Yet we don't hear you insist on calling humans fish, do we? All cladists are hypocrites and don't actually believe what you claim to believe anymore than we believe your bullshit.

Since both Human mammals and reptile/dinosaurs birds are tetrapods, you could classify them as fish. If I'm already classified as being an animal and a tetrapod, I would Unironically be ok also being classified as a fish.
You made me go on a Google trip to prove you wrong, but youre a fucking retard, both dinosaurs are birds and mammals are whales. You mean "not all", that's what you're missing in your post.
By the way, birds started evolving in the Jurassic and by the cretaceous they were already fully radiated across the planet. Your comparison sucks shit because dinosaurs have been birds more than they have been dinosaurs, whales never did, and most likely never will, outnumber the other mammals.
>mammals are whales
Lol no. Whales are mammals, though.
>continental drift is because of the dinosaurs
Lol no. Not even because of the asteroid. The effects of the asteroid impact killed off the non-avian dinosaurs (ie, non-bird dinosaurs).
The planet itself didn't even fucking notice.
Plate tectonics carried on just as before.
The asteroid that killed the dinosaurs made about as much impact on the planet itself as you would make throwing a pebble into a volcano.
Pterosaurs aren't archosaurs and pigeons aren't dinosaurs.

NTA but... what do you think archosaurs were? What do you think pterosaurs decended from if not archosaurs?

All Archosaurs descend from a single family of reptiles: the Proterosuchids. Crocodilians (and all other "Pseudo"suchians (I hate that word)) and dinosaurs clearly descend from Proterosuchids, but the ancestry of Pterosaurs is still a near complete mystery and they lack features diagnostic for the Archosaurs such as a mandibular fenestra or a subnarial gap. Even their teeth are totally different.

As for where Pterosaurs DO come from, I'm partial to the theory that they're descended from Tanystropheids or something similar.

Thought the prevailing theory is that they are lagerpetids.
At any rate, are not Proterosuchids, Tanystropheids and lagerpetids considered Archosaurs?

That's David Peters' theory. I don't agree with that. I do agree with him that most of Pterosaur theory is currently wrong and they're not Archosaurs though.
>At any rate, are not Proterosuchids, Tanystropheids and lagerpetids considered Archosaurs?
No. Cladists create all kinds of stupid categories and subcategories based on one species falling outside the group and they need to cut that shit out. But Archosaurs only include Proterosuchids and all their descendants. ArchosaurOMORPHS include more species.

Oh excuse me, you said Lagerpetids. I was thinking Lepidosaurs. No, Lagerpetids are closely related to Pterosaurs apparently but nobody really knows how that group fits in with other reptiles.

For clarification, by "that group" I mean Pterosaurs + Lagerpetids.
I think it was CIA actually, why do you think we keep getting those bird flu epidemics all the time?
I thought they got wiped out by hemorrhoids?
I cant believe steroids killed the dinosaurs
I fucking knew the t. rex wasnt natty

Fuck yes I do.
Jesus fucking christ haven’t you seen the opening from ARMAGEDDON? Charles Heston was quite clear that a piece of rock just six miles wide did that.
As much as I believe that 9/11 was caused by airliners.

What kind of a retarded take is this?
Earth had one massive landmass.
Gets hit by space rock.
Splits apart and pushes fragments away from eachother.
Organisms living on earth had no effect on space rock.
This isn't what happened at all, they were already moving before the asteroid hit.
It was the garden gnomes
No. There are some eating from a feeder in my backyard right now.
>anyone who says anything i don't like about dinosaurs is muh paleoschizo boogeyman
no, I ate them all
Birds are dinosaurs paleoschizo
Birds aren't dinosaurs.
Birds are dinosaurs and they are reptiles.
No.
Yes. Cope.
By definition reptiles are cold blooded.
Birds are not.

Birds are dinosaurs and reptiles.
No.
Cope.
No, it's more like saying humans aren't Mammals, not that they're mice. Of course humans are mammals and dinosaurs are reptiles.
Here's your (You)
Birds are dinosaurs, but dinosaurs are not birds, just as whales are mammals but mammals are not whales.
Birds evolved from dinosaurs but once they transitioned to warmbloodedness they stopped being dinosaurs. If birds are dinosaurs then you're a coelacanth.
>Mammals evolved from synapsids but once they transitioned to warmbloodedness they stopped being synapsids. If birds are dinosaurs then you're a synapsid
Synapsid is a higher rank than dinosaur. That's like saying once fish crawled onto land they stopped being vertebrates.
there are no ranks anymore
birds are dinosaurs, mammals are synapsids, all of them are vertebrates, and bony fishes, and chordates....

There was no plate tectonics.
Pangea was a single landmass.
Earth was stable.
>because dinosaurs have been birds more than they have been dinosaurs
You might be retarded.
If a fucking pterodactyl isn't a dinosaur then neither is a pigeon.
Both are archosaurs though. Birds/dinosaurs are archosaurs, pterosaurs are archosaurs, and both are reptiles. I don't see a problem here.
Pterosaurs aren't archosaurs and pigeons aren't dinosaurs.

he was cute
