Just going to repost this post I made on the durability thread.

Supercommunist Idk if you've seen this yet. If you haven't, I think you'll like it. Crocs just go so hard.

Do any of you guys remember this small crocodile that got flipped and gored by a big bull cape buffalo?

Turns out he survived! This is the same crocodile in a video uploaded four years later. The healed injury is still visible (video link->).

theropod: Yes. Shit. I don’t think the free world had any real plan B or contingency for the worst case scenario that has apparently ended up happening. Things were bad enough as it is, and nobody really has any capacity left to deal with it getting even shittier. Nov 6, 2024 19:38:01 GMT 5

Infinity Blade: I imagine tyrannosaurs having finesse through their premaxillary teeth. We know they could delicately scrape meat off of bones with those if they wanted to. Aug 28, 2024 1:29:55 GMT 5

Supercommunist: Anyone find it kind of weird how some people portay gigantosaurus as a finese predator compared to a tyrannosaurus? Given that tyrannosaurus had the smaller gape and the duller teeth, wouldn't it require more precision? Aug 27, 2024 23:49:00 GMT 5
