Considering how big the planet is, that's really not that many.

Excuse me...billion

Excuse me...billion

Wake me up when it gets to trillion.

It's funny because Hollywood always has like the one lone TRex running around like he's the solo king of the jungle.

I think they were solo hunters, though. So you'd probably expect to only see one at a time.

Not if you were in the business of making T-Rex porn. Which is frankly an untapped market.

Only one T Rex had a number one hit song though...Bang a Gong!!!

That was total population over millions of years, not all at once.

Oh, right thanks for pointing that out.

Yeah, I doubt Jerryd Bayless ever got into porn.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

They're obviously the 1% of dinosaurs and should have their taxes raised.

That's what I was thinking. Think of the rear-leg thrust.

They dont take up space as they are much taller than cubic feet taken on the ground.

 

[jlprk]

Oh, right thanks for pointing that out.

When I first read this on Google News before this thread, I thought, bullshit. To fit one-third of the current human population onto Earth at one time, the giant animals would have to live in cities with organized sewage disposal and street grids.

But then I realized, yeah, it could have been. Even without electricity, maybe they used giant outhouses.

I'm not sure the giants would have allowed the T-Rex to use their outhouses. There's nothing like that in the fossil record.

I don't think T-Rexes can wipe their asses.

I once used a fossil outhouse in Canada for 2 months. That thing was old, but the honeyman made his monthly pickups and we were fine in a nonelectric lake cottage.

The dinosaurs might have developed wells for their urban water. My water was orange from rusty iron when I pumped it into a bucket. Carrying the heavy bucket 3 blocks made me grow 2 inches that summer.

So I can prove that the Earth supported 2 1/2 billion big dinosaurs at one time. When's the game start?

I plan to be reincarnated as a T Rex.

I sometimes feel that way when I consult with my lawyer or the IRS.
