what is the collective noun for dinosaurs
The problem with using herd or pack for sauropodomorpha or theropoda is that those are both suborders, which would mean that while all theropods (basically any large two legged carnivourous dinosaur) come in packs, collective nouns for the avian dinosaurs go down to individual genus.vatarIII wrote:thc wrote:Since birds are dinosaurs, there's your answer. Collective nouns for some dinosaurs do exist.birds evolved from dinosaurs, but birds aren't dinosaurs, dinosaur means terrifying lizard, are birds terrifying lizards? no. I would say that 'terrifying lizard' doesn't fit the taxon very well anyway.
