The Past Ain't What It Used To Be

Another childhood myth demolished. Dinosaurs had feathers. This lends even more credence to the theory that they still walk (or, rather, for the most part, fly) among us. But unlike the case that would be if their ancestors still lived, we're above them in the food chain.

Considering the make up of the T-Rex head, its more likely it was a scavenger, rather than hunter. So, with that and the feathers, we finally know where the idea for Big Bird came from. Dinos are living on Sesame Street!
