They’re literally dinosaurs in the same way that humans and other vertebrates are literally fish. Which is to say you can describe them that way taxonomically, but the saying “birds are literally dinosaurs” is misleading and disingenuous.
But I can’t agree. While some birds have evolved well away from their roots, others haven’t changed much at all, and should realistically count. Not just the rhea either.
If you want a dino, go buy a bird. They’re literally dinosaurs. Dragon 100%.
You can pick whichever dinosaur you want though, if they want a chicken I’m cool with that, but its a boring choice.
Could I have Dravid the Davidosaur?
