I was today years old when I learned that T-REXES COULD SWIM???? man, Isla Nublar really got in bed with the wrong Attenborough #PrehistoricPlanet

So mad we are living through plague times and I can’t watch this shit on the IMAX screen at the science museum as God intended all dinosaur content to be consumed

ah, to be a pterasaur living atop a rocky sea island cliff

no email or taxes, just vibes

I see you, composer who isn’t legally allowed to rip off John Williams’ “Jurassic Park” theme for this sweeping aerial shot but is committed to making me think I’m ALMOST hearing it

“THE DROWNED CONTINENT OF ZEALANDIA”???????? why does everything this man says sound so cool

david attenborough: and the male tuarangisaurs gather here to display for the females

*giant protrusions burst up from the water*

me: jesus christ guys

me: oh okay those are their necks

is there ANYTHING better to see on your screen than the looming blue shadow of an absolutely goddamn enormous sea monster slowly and menacingly gliding through the water towards its unwary prey

ladies, make your man prove he's good enough to have your babies by forcing his light display to match the precise rhythm of your vibrating bioluminescent tentacles

"breeding is the final act of their short lives" wow okay never mind that took a turn

the bioluminescent jellyfish things get to have sex once and then die so I guess this is a CW show

A ONE AND A HALF YEAR PREGNANCY???? jfc free that tuarangisaur LET HER GO BACK TO HER LIFE

ps i've convinced myself that the Loch Ness Monster is a tuarangisaur and no amount of "facts" or "science" will change my mind

watching a few minutes of the next one before bed and would IMMEDIATELY die for this herd of dreadnoughtasaurs, something i have never heard of before (like a brontosaurus but gianter!)

wtf these weird octopus tentacle air sacs on their necks are INSANE
