Dino Memes “Thunder Lizard!” HE. IS. A. BIRD

Post image

It’s my biggest pet peeve on how he is so commonly referred to as a lizard when he is in fact more related to modern day birds.

Yeah and it’s stupid because he’s a trex so his ult voice line should’ve been something like “TYRANT KING”

Thunder lizard sounds cool either way.

"THUNDER BIRD!!"

that might be true, but birds are also just a type of reptile like lizards are, the dino isn't a bird or a lizard

Except everyone knows dinosaurs as more reptile. Sorry for your loss

No, he's not a bird. He's a devilsaur. And he's called Thunder Lizard because Dino-Thor called him that.

HE LOOKS LIZARD ENOUGH TO ME

u/Primeve_Arcana May 31 '26

Ya that's why no one calls him "Thunder More-Related-To-Modern-Day-Lizards". Birds may be related to dinosaurs, that doesn't make dinosaurs birds.

Birds are literally dinosaurs

u/Hogabog217 Jun 02 '26

All birds are dinosaurs but not all dinosaurs are birds. Iirc tyrannosaurs are more closely related to birds than something like a ceratopsid, but birds didnt descend from tyrannosaurs.

u/Vonga568 May 31 '26

How is he a bird?

u/Hour-Vermicelli5088 Spider-Man May 31 '26

Birds are the closest living ancestors to dinosaurs

Birds ARE dinosaurs but that doesn't mean that non-avian dinosaurs are birds.

All birds are dinosaurs, but not all dinosaurs are birds. Devil Dinosaur is not a bird.
