lack of oxygen in the atmosphere and too much competition from other, stronger species to claim higher spots in the totem pole of evolution
motherfuckers tried it already, though
In most of the age of dinosaurs, oxygen levels were the same, or more often lower than today. Dinosaurs allready had a superior breatjing system. But birds have the most effecient breathing system we ever know to exist.
Mammalian life is a superior blueprint for successful organisms. Birds just have good lungs and brains, but they squandered them on everything else and still lay eggs and have shitty sorta-useful forelimbs at best like a bunch of suckers. Just wait until we steal their neuron density and neuron regeneration genes, then they’re really fucked.
It's a shame, mammals aside some few exceptions are extremely bland and ugly creatures. Theropods just have such an elegant and effective design. It's a wondrous base that's stayed beautiful for hundreds of millions of years. Just, flawless in aesthetic.

Because imagine a T.Rex sized cockatoo blasting eardrums out for miles.
With fuck farts and sarah get the rat no no milk in the cereal I hate fucking dogs tell Timmy he's got promoted I'm fired egg shit EGG SHIT EGG SHIT AND THE STOVE IS OFF JOHN GOD FUCKING DAMMIT.
Because if they did, I would eat them. All of them.
>Why dont birds become dinosaur sized again?
The average dinosaur wasn't much bigger than a medium sized dog.
So the answer is, some of them have.
This is not true I have no idea how this idea started.
do you really want to see massive piles of shit everywhere?
They can't fit the niche of large land predator anymore because mammals are better at it and drove pic related to extinction.
They tried but failed
Now there are too many large mammals filling that niche

Those bitches got out competed by mammals
earth expanded and gravity increased

Birds are disgusting vermin and my dog kills the big ones my cat misses
t. Mammal
>mammals
>not disgusting
They're not known as "the glanded species" for nothing. No non-mammal will ever be as gross as any mammal.

He means they move oxygen around better.
Some very much did
ummm?
Flying is a far better way to find food than moving a two-ton ass.

And screaming.
2,000 decibel screaming.
are you okay anon
Yeah man I'm just saying thank god these things aren't any bigger because then they'd be louder.
Imagine
Meds. Now.
Haha I love cockatoos theyre such little bastards.
