Most people actually don't know this lol 3 u/Winter-Actuary-9659 Mar 06 '25 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 1 u/Winter-Actuary-9659 29d ago I didn't know that, I thought it was one of those little ones that survived the mass extinction. 5 u/Curious_Viking89 29d ago All the dinosaurs that survived the cretaceous mass extinction were already very similar to modern birds 1 u/Winter-Actuary-9659 29d ago That's what I meant. 3 u/Hc_Svnt_Dracons 29d ago edited 29d ago Here's a great video by Clint's Reptiles on bird's phylogeny.
