ððĶ How did the dinosaurs know danger was coming?
In the dinosaur age world,
One mistake.
Could mean life.
The question is...
How do they know that "danger is approaching"?
They have no alarm.
No technology.
There are only "senses."
And it's probably sharper than we thought.
ð 1) Eyes - different vision
The eye position immediately tells them their role.
âĒ Predatory dinosaur
Often with eyes turned in front
Allows accurate shifts and hunts.
âĒ Herbivorous dinosaur
The eyes are on the side.
Wide angle visible
To detect the dangers around you.
Vision
Is the first defense line
ð 2) Hearing - The world of sound we can't see.
Even we don't know the exact sound of dinosaurs.
But the ear and cranium structure
Indicates that
Some species pick up low-frequency sounds very well.
Heavy footsteps.
Or movement in the bushes.
Could have been caught before the predators arrived.
ð 3) Sniffing - Remote sensing
Some kind of predator.
There's a big olfactory bulb.
Compared to brain size,
It means
They might use a smell.
Both to find the victim.
And recognize the enemy.
The smell of blood.
Or the smell of carcass.
Is a warning sign in the ancient world.
ð 4) Vibration reception
Many animals today
Recognize tremors through the ground.
It is hypothesized that
Some group of dinosaurs.
May feel the tremors from the pace.
Of large animals approaching.
Before "seeing" the danger.
They may have already "felt" it first.
ðĨ 5) Herd = Natural Alarm System
Some kind of dinosaur.
Together as a group.
When one panics,
The behavior will pass on the whole herd.
In a world without security.
Being alone
Is the risk.
ð The night is even more dangerous.
Dinosaur Age World
Much darker than today.
Dependence on just the eyes
Not enough.
Hearing
Sniffing
And instinct.
Therefore more important
ð§ Small brain, but not stupid.
Even the brains of some dinosaurs are not big.
But some of the structure
Such as the olfactory brain and balancing.
Well developed.
They may not think as complicated as humans.
But effectively "survive."
ð Lessons from an insecure world
In the dinosaur age,
Non-observation
Is the end
Nature teaches them that.
Being Alive
Is to realize before it's too late.
âĻ. End of chapter.
If you stood in the woods 80 million years ago,
Maybe the dinosaur knew you were there.
Before you know it's anywhere near you.
