Blog #5 Walking with the dinosaurs

For this week’s blog I am going to talk about dinosaurs. I have always loved dinosaurs ever since I can remember. When I was a little kid I would always ask for dinosaur toys for Christmas and birthdays.  One specific Christmas when I was eight years old I remember waking up and finding a giant red bag filled with dinosaur action figures, it was literally the greatest gift ever. Now I have always had trouble deciding which my overall favorite dinosaur is, but I have narrowed it down to my top three.  I would say a, Velociraptor, Tyrannosaurus-rex, and a plesiosaur which is like the Lockness monster.  I really like velociraptors from the movie Jurassic park, I really enjoyed how clever and smart they were. I thought it was awesome, how the raptors could work together to figure out ways to eat the people in the movie. I also liked how they could open doors and would attack from the side. Now my love for tyrannosaurusrexes comes from the movie The Land before Time. In the movie they would call a t-rex a “sharp tooth” because they had sharp teeth and when I was a kid I just thought this was hilarious. I also like t-rexes because they are the most powerful dinosaur ever and could easily defeat any other dinosaur such as a triceratops. I also just like how scary t-rexes look especially the one at Universal studios from the Jurassic Park water ride. At the end of the ride there is a giant mechanical t-rex that looks like it is going to eat you, it is really cool. Now for the plesiosaur, I like them simply because the way they look.  A plesiosaur has four fins like a whale, a long tale, a roundish body, and a thin long neck. It also lives in water, but looks like land dinosaur, so it is really crazy and different from any other animal ever. So basically I think the world would be way cooler if dinosaurs were still alive today ): (341).
