That has to be one VERY old stegosaurus, as they lived in the Jurassic period; 156 – 144 million years ago. While T-Rex is a relatively new kid on the block, living in the Cretaceous period, a mere 67-65 million years ago.
Yes I know this is a comic strip, but since paleontology has been a life long passion of mine, this particular “match up” has always irked me.
What will it take to make Blue and Red quit fighting? Pandemic? Economic crisis? Once-in-a-century weather extremes? Hope it doesn’t come down to an asteroid!
Follow-up: from a computer standpoint, the YYYYMMDD format only works if leading zeroes are included: 20210503. One must use the entire field because while computers are fast, they’re not smart (ie, they don’t “think”… they calculate)… and has been discussed, they are not universally coded.

Stegosaurus, while deploying the thagomizer: “Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!”

No, that’s the RIGHT one.
For these Dinos are on Mars approximately 1 billion years ago.

He knows of the upcoming “doom-meteor” beforehand?
Is he a Nostradamusaurus?

We are too busy fighting each other instead of fighting a common enemy oh, let’s say the Corona Virus.

Sort of like a dog fighting a cat. They are both distracted by a squirrel.

That would imply that all of BC’s characters were wiped out by the asteroid!

T-Rex and Stegosaurus were about 150 MILLION years apart. That’s further apart than the T-Rex and humans by about 90 Million years.

If they can see it, doesn’t that mean it’s going to hit somewhere, or is it just not big enough to be “the one”?
