@dinoguy128: Did Dinosaurs have beaver tails? Probably not. Obviously, we don’t know everything, but there are methods that help determine their basic look, it’s not a shot in the dark. #dinotok #accuratedinosaurs #dinosaur

Bitty batty :

It’s almost like the experts are making informed decisions backed by science😀😀😀

Orca :

And why do they always try to compare mammal skeletons with dinosaurs (which are reptiles)

Ree Hoon Bare Rat :

“They had this because you can’t prove they didn’t!” Actually we can “no that doesn’t count”

kn0x :

And dinosaurs aren’t mammals

gogeta_job :

Birds are reptiles ?

Phil 📖 -Author :

Tendons leave scars on your bones where they attach. The bigger the scar, the bigger the muscle. You can tell a lot from the bones.

Masroni🇺🇳 :

Me when someone acts like the scientist don't know what their talking about when they do this stuff for a living

PaleoPizza :

Are you sure about that…. You not seen a spinosaur tail….. definitely a side ways beaver tail that 🦫

Isaiah :

Could that be possible that one prehistoric mammal that lived with the dinosaurs had a beaver like tail

Shango Simms :

Wouldn’t the beaver rather prove that marine reptiles reconstructions than dinosaurs 🤣

JazzyCleo :

😭 Like it wouldn't be an entire area of study if paleontologists didn't know what they were doing.

UFO :

i don't know how but this made me question, do you think that someone could reconstruct humans with tails because of tailbone

thenewranger1234 :

Also thing these posts forget. We're constantly updating how we reconstruct extinct animals! As we learn more, we update reconstruction to match the new information we've gathered! Its a constantly improving process!

SillyTV Adventures :

Since platypuses have beaver tails, would they have the same attachment points?

thedude :

I was going to ask if that was a different I was noticing or nothing at all.

duckywhisperer :

the same way we know that spinosaurids had sails and flat tails the attachment points literally prove it reptiles also have very different bone structure than mammals

Nboy08 :

sadly no big beaver dinosaurs. it would have been cool

Jango Fett :

I have had a random 3 AM thought but could dinosaurs get metabolic bone disease and if so is there any evidence

ms_Way :

spinosaurus has a flat tail but vertical woul d it still be like other dinosaur tails or something else

REX🦖 :

That would actually look so funny

Biomewanderer :

just looking at its tail bone structure, you can see the bones are made to support much more weight in the horizontal axis than the vertical

Jsn :

Off topic: you look like Luke Grimes

BearWithBadPosture :

Would some of them have ridged tails like the ackie monitor, ackies have it so predators can’t grab them if they lodge themselves in a rock,so the ridges on the tail make it so it can’t yank it out of the hole since the tail is too hard to grasp
