Earlier reptiles, which descended from amphibians, which descended from fish...
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Then why not refer to them as fish instead of dinosaurs? :laugh:

Much easier to believe when you see what the smaller Theropods (like the famous Velociraptor) really looked like: A Prehistoric Plumage Palette: Discovering the Colors of Dinosaur Feathers - Science in the News[^]

Because the line does not end there and in the end we would not be any smarter than that there are living things on this planet. We could not even distinguish between plants, animals and the other forms of life. Besides that, it also gives us clues how evolution has played out. Discovering a fossil of a dinosaur that's older than all known amphibians would cause a lot of questions that demanded answers. Historically they were quite unsure where birds fit into that evolutionary tree, even if some relation to reptiles was always suspected. Turned out that they are the last surviving dinosaurs.

This really got way off topic, I think. I was just curious why you referred to ducks as dinosaurs. And if the other person was right that you did it because of evolution then why stop at dinosaurs? Just curious.

*Sigh* I'm a CodeWraith, not a science teacher! ... fish -> early vertebrates -> invertibrates (like a worm) -> simple multicell animals like jellyfish -> even simpler multicell animals like corals -> colonies of single celled animals -> single celled animals (all sorts of bacteria) -> ...

Simply because many people would love to see a living dinosaur, unaware that dinosaurs are alive and well. At least one last branch of their large family tree, which has become a tree of its own by now.

Descended from something 'fishy' is more to the point . . . however I risk losing the KSS rating with this observation.

Not so weird if you look at that thread below about jumping off a cliff. A T-Rex (one of the largest Theropods) might be a good reason. Griff wrote that the T-Rex is extinct. True, but it could theoretically be recreated because we have indeed found some of its DNA. Practically this would probably not work unless we get far better at reconstructing the whole genome, but the DNA of a bird, a decendant of a smaller Theropod, could help. And yes, I always liked ducks. Even 100000 of them are not as scary as one of their bigger cousin from 65 million years ago.

A horde of cats would be just as effective. We had swarms of locusts in Texas from time to time. The cat went crazy and ate as many locusts as she could. Chasing flies never was of any interest again. I seriously doubt that 100000 cats in one place would behave as well as the ducks or let themselves be led as easily to the battle.

I've seen the inundation footage on TV. It's like the seventeen year cicadilidae romp up the trunks of trees enmass only the camera footage of this type of devastation looks a bit less noxious. Not sure whether the cicada actually does any eating along it's vertical ascent but all that molting sure looks unpleasant. Especially when all instars have completed and everywhere looks like a massive snake has passed through. But locust; I've always wondered why some forward thinking Madison Avenue executive hasn't come up with an inexpensive way to manufacture a biomass harvesting machine to corale the lubbers, grind them into human-consumable protein, and feed the hungry. Like all that invasive carp that flies into the faces of stinkpot (that's a less-than-20 ft-runabout with a 50HP outboard) captains who run through the northern branches of the big muddy and rant and rave about it on cellphone videos. As far as an industry as yet tapped, right? If not eat it, plow it into the ground at least.
