chickens are related to dinosaurs

I thought all birds evolved from dinos. But I have no clue. I just post the facts the kiddo gives me. I am factless, he is factful.

I actually woke him up today to get the fact to post. I thought he was up doing his school work but apparently he wasn't feeling well so my wife told him to sleep in. I barged into his room and said "I need a fun fact to win us some sats". Haha

You know why dinosaurs can’t talk?

‘Cause they are dead.

They apparently realized far more of the different species were birdlike than previously imagined. About a decade ago, a friend of mine was gifted a large coffee table book about dinosaurs compiled by paleontologists and scientific illustrators. Apparently it was a big deal because it was the first revision of the book that had all the updated "feathered looks" and it was very cool to see.
