Палеонтолог однажды подумал, что, поскольку у троодона такой большой мозг и глаза, обращенные вперед, он превратится в прямоходящее существо. Разве он не похож на «инопланетян», которых заметили люди? Что, если бы они не вымерли, у них были бы впереди миллионы лет технологий и эволюции. Прошло достаточно времени, чтобы большинство, если не все, свидетельства их культуры и технологий исчезли. Если бы они были очень умными, возможно, они бы скрывали себя и технологии от новых новых видов на планете. Просто мысль. Я не имею никакого влияния ни в ту, ни в другую сторону. Что вы думаете об этом?

A Star Trek Voyager episode called «distant origin» explored this subject. They encountered an alien race that originated on Earth and evolved from dinosaurs into bi-pedal intelligent beings that became spacefaring long before homo sapiens evolved.

I’m really starting to entertain the idea that there is a group of NHI that are tasked with creating bipedal humanoids out of appropriate and available biological material.
Humor this idea for a moment.
The mantids are often reported as being a truly ancient species.
The first life on land on earth were insects. Which were huge but eventually became limited in size as oxygen levels dropped. A 60 million year time period.
The supposed lizzid people in the lore supposedly have a claim on earth because they originated here but left a long time ago.
After the giant insect era ended we got the dinosaurs. A period of time lasting 179 million years.
Then the Dino’s went extinct. But the therapsid group survived and eventually became humans.
If things go as I predict, once we’re gone the humanoid builders will return.
My bet is on dogs getting picked next.
Which would be hilarious to watch.

Lizzid peeple!
Good thing the diagram showed me where it’s «fingers» and «head» are. HoLY SHIT, ankles?!?!

This is bad speculative evolutionary biology. Really just abysmally terrible. There is no reason to think a hominid bodyplan is preferred in convergent evolution, and the spectrum of bodyplans in intelligent animals on Earth right now heavily disproves that hypothesis.
That said, the phenomenon of carcinisation does show that there are certain bodyplans that are “good moves in morphogenic space”. Perhaps there is an analogous phenomenon of “hominidisation” that we haven’t discovered yet due to having an N of 1. But that certainly isn’t supported by what we know about the evolution of intelligence on Earth, and I *hope* it’s not true because a Star Trek universe would be extremely fucking boring and disappointing.
This is an artistic concept and reveals nothing about how this dinosaur would evolve. Sometimes I question the average IQ here.
At this point you are just getting silly…
This is proof right here.
This sub is shittier every day.

Bahahhaahahaa!
Right. GOOD for HIM! 😜
A lot of dinosaurs had feathers . As a whole , the dinosaur species were closer to birds than to reptiles
