I hate how people say birds are literally dinosaurs. That’s like saying homo erectus are still alive today.

dinosaurs are a group that includes the subgroup of birds. most dinosaurs are extinct, but birds still exist
homo erectus is a single species within the group known as hominins. most hominins are extinct, but homo sapiens still exists
apples are fruits. I like apples, but that doesn’t mean I like every kind of fruit

I have watched the simulated running of various dinosaur species in documentaries such as Jurassic Park.
I have also watched my chickens excitedly run around my back yard.
There is nothing you can say that will convince me birds are not literally dinosaurs.

So are chickens and I can anecdotaly confirm that they lead very cozy lives. Mostly due to me pamperin them a lot.
