Nature was and is Cruel to the Dinosaurs

Nature is honestly cruel to the dinosaurs. Seriously. First, let's just remember that birds just didn't simply evolve from dinosaurs---

They are dinosaurs.

And for the few of you who disagree-

Origina of Birds

And I know Wikipedia can be edited by anybody, so just use the references in the Wikipedia article or just do research of your own.

Now for the people who clciked on this discussion of why Nature is cruel: (But beautiful at the same time)

Let's think first about our origins. We are of course, mammals. And during the reign and dominance of the dinosaurs, mammals were, to be honest, completely helpless.

We were easy prey for the smallest of dinosaurs.

We were kinda like fast food for them.

It was easy for us (as in our ancestors) to be eaten in seconds if we left our trees, or the ground.

Then Nature threw what I call the "LOLz, F.U. DINOS!!!!" at the dinosaurs, and well, sh!t hit the fan...

(Just keeping it real, here...)

All the saurapods died... The top predators died... But possibly many of the smaller Dinosaurs survived... MAYBE including the Velociraptor...

Now that's when Nature is cruel to the dinosaurs.

Mammals, got bigger and we starting splitting. By about 45 million years ago I believe, we had primitive horses, primates, hogs, wild cats, etc.

Basically, the tables turned...

^That image is for comedy, and it's funny because that's basically what happened...

Before, we were like fast food for them. Now, they are literally our fast food.

In the USA it's traditional to kill a dinosaur and roast it yearly on our Thanksgiving Holiday...

Nature...

You. Are. Cruel.

But yet- beautiful.

Before you ever get sad that dinosaurs aren't what they used to be, just look at how beautiful they are now.

The point it, be greatful for the rock that made an unlucky move for the dinosaur- but lucky for us.

So the next time you get some fried chicken, just smile at Nature and it's devious ways of irony.

Just a thought. :)
