The very fierce and terrifying velociraptor was merely the size of a turkey. Weighing a whopping 35 pounds and coming in at 3 feet tall this turkey size creature had a bite force similar to dogs. A very small but mighty creature. Not a creature I’d want to face off with. #funfact
Sloths are so boring aren’t they? I mean they’re clumsy, they sleep all day, and eat the same type of salads.
I bet you didn’t know that they’re 3X faster in the water. Or that you would lose a breath holding competition and they have a bladder of steel. #FunFacts#animals
Gastroliths or gizzard stones are consumed by many species of animals to help aide in digestion. These rocks help to grind up fibrous plants, and food from animals that lack teeth. Dinosaurs, birds and crocodiles are some of the unique species that ate these. #Funfacts#animals
Unlike hermit crabs turtles nor tortoises can leave their shells. In fact their shells are literally a part of them . Without the shells they would die. Their shells contain the spine and rib cages and is packed with nerve endings
What do you get when a bunch of flamingoes get together?
A flamboyance!
Flamingoes are very social, vibrant birds very unique
Another fun fact is that these guys feed upside down and just like baleen whales they filter feed on brine shrimp, diatoms, and algae. #funfacts#animals
Imagine being in the most magical spot with an incredible view. And the love of your life gets down on one knee and opens that beautiful red velvet box. But instead of a beautiful handmade diamond ring it’s a pebble…that’s how some male penguins win over their loves

Anyone order a giant cat sized dragonfly? Nope me neither…well let me introduce to u the Meganisoptera, also known as griffinflies. These hefty buggers lived in the Carboniferous period. They had a wingspan of a crow (2.5ft ) and a body length of a cat (1.5ft) #insects#funfacts
The answer:
brachiosaurus is similar to our modern giraffe!
In fact they are known as the “giraffe of the Mesozoic" because of its giraffe-like proportions
Ever heard of giant bugs? Did you know they existed?
Well they did, and they existed during the carboniferous period which occurred before dinosaurs.
So how was this possible?
This was due to the high oxygen levels which reached 31% compared to today’s 21%

“Nobody move a muscle”
Sound familiar?
All I’m going to say is that if you ever find yourself face to face with a giant Tyrannosaurus rex don’t do that, they can absolutely see you with their binocular vision.
Would the ground shake when a T-Rex walked?
No, they were actually pretty quiet stealthy creatures. Just like our modern elephants it’s believed that a T-Rex had thick, fatty padding on the bottoms of its feet to absorb the shock when it walked.
Look at this masterpiece from the other night, almost doesn’t seem real. God does create artwork but we don’t always open our eyes to see the beauty around us because we are so distracted by everything else instead #God#Christian#beauty
@ludawissy Have you ever tried writing a book or short story. When I was younger I had a really active imagination and I would turn them into stories lol
Got a war going on inside my head
Inner fight, I don't think that I can win
Cut deep wounds underneath my skin, Paper thin, My shame swallowed me whole
Beat me down, tormented my soul
Hiding my face, losing my faith in these chains
Keep me living in this place
