100 u/Winter-Actuary-9659 Mar 06 '25 Well they are related. 8 u/DizzyGlizzy029 Mar 06 '25 Nope, birds ARE dinosaurs. Not related. Most people actually don't know this lol 4 u/Winter-Actuary-9659 29d ago I know, I mean specifically that kind of small dinosaur is likely an ancestor of the modern chicken. 3 u/Curious_Viking89 29d ago Except that's a tyrannosaur chick. And tyrannosaurs aren't the ancestors of chickens 3 u/DizzyGlizzy029 29d ago Yeah, birds are basically dromarosauridae. Which means the tyrannosaur is related to the chicken, but not an ancestor if I remember correctly 2 u/Curious_Viking89 29d ago That is correct. Both are therapods. 2 u/DizzyGlizzy029 29d ago To add to this. Chickens aren't the closest related bird to tyrannosaurus. Don't know where that came from but yeah it's not true Edit:said dinosaurs instead of tyrannosaurs 3 u/longingrustedfurnace 29d ago Technically they are, in the sense that all birds are equally related to the T. rex. 1 u/DizzyGlizzy029 29d ago Yeah that's I meant, but most people think that the chicken is a direct descendant from the tyrannosaurus. 1 u/Hc_Svnt_Dracons 29d ago edited 29d ago Slight correction, birds are not dromaeosaurs, they are avialae. They are related through being paraves. For comparison, cats and dogs are both a part of the carnivora clade. However, cats are felidae and dogs caninae. 3 u/DizzyGlizzy029 29d ago Ahh yes, your right. I see now. So dromarosauridae is related to birds (avialae) through paraves. Makes sense. I got confused, I thought sense paraves was in dromarosauridae. I just messed up.

Slight correction, birds are not dromaeosaurs, they are avialae. They are related through being paraves.
For comparison, cats and dogs are both a part of the carnivora clade. However, cats are felidae and dogs caninae.
