You know what annoys me? (Dinosaur rant)

How people group all dinosaurs as hailing from the “Jurassic” period.

You know where Tyrannosaurus Rex came from? Cretaceous. 

Triceratops? Cretaceous.

Velociraptor (which is actually small, about the size of a turkey)? Cretaceous.

Utahraptor (what we actually picture when we hear “raptor”)? Cretaceous.

Parasaurolophus (Ducky from Land Before Time)? Cretaceous.

Spinosaurus? Cretaceous.

You know which dinosaurs DID come from the Jurassic period? Stegosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Plesiosaurus and Apatosaurus (Little Foot, or better known as Brontosaurus).

So when an advertisement for a video game shows a screen shot of a T-Rex fighting a Triceratops and says, “Immerse yourself in a 3D Jurassic world!” they need to stfu and stop misinforming people. They should just group it as, “the period of the dinosaurs.”

I know just saying “Jurassic” is more convenient, but would saying that lions, kangaroos and mane wolves all lived in the same place for convenience be an acceptable practice? No, it wouldn’t be.

edit: Please excuse any and all spelling errors. I’m not an expert, these are just things I remembered from when I was a kid obsessed with dinosaurs, and expanded on =3
