We live closer to the time of T-Rex than T-Rex lived to the time of stegosaurus.
67 million years separate us from T-Rex.
83 million years separate T-Rex from Stegosaurus. (150 million years between us and stegosaurus)

This is only mind blowing because popular media likes to show every dinosaur at once. Like there’s a lot of things depicting stegosaurus fighting T-Rex; but these animals never would have met. They’re from entirely different eras.

There were still mammoth when the pyramids were being built.
AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 months ago
This makes me wonder if there is any possibility that someone who worked on the pyramids knew what roast mammoth tasted like.
