First Steps If Dinosaurs Return to Earth

Should we pet them? Or should we run?

By ABC StoriesPublished 3 years ago 6 min read

This is not a practice run, people. The reemergence of dinosaurs on Earth has caused widespread panic. Even though the best scientific minds are hard at work attempting to piece together how this could have happened overnight, in the meanwhile, please follow these precautions. Since Jurassic Park has only introduced us to a small subset of dinosaur species, the first step is to learn to tell them apart. Think to yourself, "Can I tell the difference between a harmless herbivore dinosaur and one that can eat me?" What you find out might literally mean life or death. The most prevalent herbivores are discussed briefly below. If you want to be prepared for an encounter with a dinosaur, you need learn to recognize it immediately. The Brachiosaurus is out and about in the neighborhood. For instance, they probably won't injure you on purpose, but if you try to pet them, their 100-foot-long tails may easily snap.

We get it, they're adorable, but try to keep your excitement in check. Next, we have the ankyoceratops. They resemble what you'd expect a rhinoceros. Remember that they are of normal human height. Petting is also discouraged. People, this is not a petting zoo. The atlasaurus may have seemed like a dangerous carnivore, but it actually wasn't. It can go pretty fast, so please don't try to race it. Despite looking like a baby Tyrannosaurus Rex, the driko Rex is really a vegetarian. Don't jump the gun here. Soon, our conversation will turn to the predatory dinosaurs. Here is a rundown of prohibited activities involving any of the aforementioned extinct animals. Never, ever, ever give them pizza or ice cream or some other 21st-century delicacy. It's terrible enough that this crap affects human beings. We can't afford to have a lot of giant creatures throw up. Don't attempt to tame them, either, or keep them as pets. Their actions are always surprising. Somehow, by a stroke of luck, humans were able to domesticate a subset of wolves that we now refer to as dogs. Dinosaurs might be a problem for this theory. If we're talking about canines, perhaps we should let them run free for a bit. Instead, you may use a good backpack to transport them. Don't worry about the size, just bring them with you. Do not try to frighten away the dinosaurs with flashy things or loud noises if you suddenly feel threatened by one.

We think this will simply further anger and frighten them. Wearing a flashlight is OK if you're used to it; just don't shine it in a dinosaur's eyes. Also, it's probably a good idea to leave any devices that can both create a lot of noise and produce a lot of light at home. Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's talk about the most probable carnivorous dinosaurs you'll encounter. If you encounter them, your best bet is to get far away as quickly as possible. The dinosaurs are probably quicker than you are, so you need to go inside quickly to a place where you can lock the door and be secure. The feared Tyrannosaurus Rex is the first item on our bargaining table. Always remember that at their tallest they can outpace you by a good distance. Please don't force it to play basketball only to test whether it can slam dunk. The dinosaurs here don't even know what a basketball is, so things might quickly escalate into a bloodbath. It's time to move on to the Velociraptor.

That's the nefarious baby dinosaur from Jurassic Park. It has the stature of a little child yet the agility of a swift adult. Do not attempt to feed it, since you may become its dinner. The Spinosaurus species is stunning. Fascination with the object on their backs is understandable, but it's best to keep your distance. They're bipedal, so to speak. teeth that are like blades, and they may grow to be as long as 60 feet. Those are the only details you require. This little dinosaur may appear like an innocent bird, but it actually poses a significant threat. First, it's able to glide. Second, it's adorable, and third, it's a carnivore. The pain of Confucianism. These Confucians and knee SS are sly, so they may try to enter your home through an open window. We advise using arm protection, such as these bite-proof arm sleeves or a similarly thick and sturdy leather arm protector. We need to formulate a strategy now that we've established a foundation. What are people going to do now that the Earth is overrun with them? Should we make peace with living with dinosaurs on Earth, or come up with a way to send them off to another planet? Let's use the first case as an illustration. In the event that we do decide to open the area to dinosaurs, we have a few choices.

A dinosaur dome might protect urban areas from danger. Just picture a massive, thick glass dome covering all cities, big and small. They are linked together via futuristic tunnels and bridges. In this way, humans could isolate our normal lives from the dangers posed by dinosaurs. Until we can construct them, we'd have to restrict our time spent in the great outdoors. Don't even think of taking a vehicle or aircraft. Any of the big dinosaur groups could easily wreck a car, and running across a flock of pterosaurs in the Plains would be terrifying. We could assemble a Dino Defense Team from of the most powerful and nimble humans. In times of crisis, these courageous individuals would be asked to take on the fiercest of the dinosaurs. Even if we could tap into our inner cave dweller by advocating a diet similar to that of the Jurassic period, I still wouldn't sign up for that event. You know, like our predecessors did and ate raw flesh. To prevent dinosaurs from viewing us as prey, it is proposed that we demonstrate our resemblance to them. I thought I overheard "hamster wheel traps." Although it could be cruel, we might construct enormous hamster wheels and force dinosaurs to run in them in order to generate power. In this way, they will be trapped in a never-ending hamster wheel of service to us, where they will remain until they finally give up. Alternatively, we may construct hamster balls for each individual on Earth. This would allow us to go without worrying about being ambushed by dinosaurs. I realize now that my approach wasn't 100% foolproof, but it was still worthwhile to attempt. Let's imagine we make the decision to move everyone to another planet, a task that would likely call for a significant leap in technology.

How would we round up so many of these massive dinosaurs, much alone transport them in a fleet of space shuttles? That's a very wild proposition, actually. To gather all the dinosaurs in one place, we may construct a big magnet. In this scenario, the only thing luring the dinosaurs close the shuttles would be the electromagnetic waves. One alternative is to construct a vast system of trampolines. Imagine you're playing Frogger in the real world. This would allow dinosaurs to use their bouncing abilities all the way to the terminal. We might even experiment with creating psychological games for the dinosaurs. We could mesmerize the dinosaurs and have them all walk themselves to the terminal. Fortunately, I don't think we'd need a worldwide sound system for that. We have plenty of satellites orbiting near enough to Earth as it is. Another option is to eliminate the most lethal dinosaurs. The herbivorous ones are also a threat since they may accidentally wreak havoc on our cities just like the carnivorous ones. By doing so, we can ensure that some dinosaurs continue to exist and coexist with humanity on Earth.
