Isn’t this a while thing? Where archeologists have drawn alternative interpretations of what dinosaurs could have looked like. I think there was a famous example, where red they got people to.draw a dinosaur from a hippo skeleton and the creature was really scary looking?
i think its them being deceptively fast on land they can outrun humans, consider they technically cant swim under water, they just are capable “running” in the water because thier bone density allows them to sink.
Well it’s also that they’re highly aggressive animals that will attack (and kill) pretty much anything that gets just a little too close for their comfort, despite looking cute and cuddly.
We are talking up to 2,000 Chihuahua that are determined to fight you at the cost of their lives. They will not get scared, they will not run, they understand it is you or them and there are 10,000lbs of them.
I can tell you from personal experience that I can punt an aggressive juvenile possum about 30ft(I think it was diseased?). Low bar, but any relevant data is useful.
The thing about chihuahuas is they get other dogs to do their dirty work
Caramena said a pack of three dogs dug under two six-inch chainlink fences to reach the communal animal enclosure on the night of Jan. 19. Happy Hollow staff members found the slaughtered equines covered in bite marks the following morning.
The third canine, a chihuahua, has not been caught but is "not considered a threat.
I think even scientists from the 80’s and 90’s were able to tell where some connective tissue would have been. So while they got the skin wrong, the overall shape wouldn’t be TOO far off. Also, Jurassic Park is what Hollywood thought dinosaurs looked like, not necessarily palentologists.
To me, this article feels more like “We have an extremely limited idea of the amount of knowledge scientists have. Here’s what a bunch of animals would look like if they were drawn by an idiot like we believe palentologists to be.” Like, some of those are clearly trying to deliberately get it wrong, like the house cat.
Then again, it is BuzzFeed. It’s not like they base their “journalism” on anything except feels.
The original Jurassic Park had a lot of support from paleontologists, and then deviated a bit but not enough for changing how “dinosaur” look in general.

Hippos are also deceptively docile looking creatures
If anything on this Earth should look like a Jurassic Park dinosaur it’s hippos
Wouldn’t that mean T-Rex actually looked cuddly and friend shaped?
“WE CAN’T PROVE THEY WEREN’T HUGE FATBIRDS”
Damn! I was hoping they were friend-shaped this whole time. The babies look kinda cute at least.

they are very fast on land for looking like a cumbersome blimp for weighing 3000-7000lbs.
To be fair, hippos are one of the most dangerous animals for humans
Gotta be about third after humans and mosquitoes.
Chihuahuas are scary af. They could easily be on second or third.
Scary, but not a serious threat.
You can kick a Chihuahua pretty far, a hippo suffers from no such vulnerability.
Depends on the amount.
I’d rather fight against 1 hippo than the equivalent body weight in chihuahuas.
A hippo would definitely be preferable. A fast and brutal death is preferable to getting your ankles bit out from under you by a thousand Chihuahua.
I don’t think getting chewed to death is fast. I’d rather fight the chihuahuas 1000x

Now may or may not be a good time to remember that army ants exist.
New TV show ideas: how far can you punt this animal.

I approve of friend-shaped T-Rex.
such a fluffy boi
Sure…“friend.” I think upon meeting one, you would find how friendly the worm finds the songbird.
