Would you rather fight one T-Rex sized chicken or 100 chicken-sized T-Rex?
Def 100 chicken sized t-rex, they’re not pack hunters, so you won’t have to deal with a big coordinated attack. Just have to fight the tiny-rex a few at a time.
I've played enough Zelda to know that chickens do attack in packs so why wouldn't a T-Rex and how do we know? For all we know they were purple and sang songs.
Yeah, I saw that documentary. They would even sometimes team up with yellow triceratops.
You.......attacked the cocos??? YOU MONSTER!!!
Fun fact, Danny Sexbang had ZERO idea about that feature despite playing Link to the Past growing up. It wasn't until Arin Hanson forced him to repeatedly attack them. Then we got to hear Dannys reaction in realtime for the first time ever seeing what happens.
Pack 100 of compsognathus (compsognathii?) says hello.
Not sure how out of date the research is, but in the original Jurassic Park book, there are roaming packs of these things that overwhelm and kill people.
Though the on screen scene of them killing people happens in the second movie, it actually takes place in the first book IIRC... anyway, they're basically depicted as land piranhas.
(Again, IIRC, Jurassic Park the book basically gets set in motion with a family of tourists being eviscerated by a pack of compys... but the first movie dropped this from the story, then when the second movie comes out they basically use this scene as the intro for that, but its on a different island and used to set off an entirely new story?)
You do. That’s how John Hammond goes. Falls in a ditch, breaks his leg, and the compys eat him alive. At least that’s what I remember.
Can I fight the mad scientist making these abominations?
Given I have seen how chickens and birds in general fight, I would fight a 100 chucken-sized t-rexes.
Neither!
