Dr. David Shiffman 🦈 Not my area of expertise but Treeosaur is especially hilarious to me. The jist is that T rex hunted by hiding behind trees and ambushing prey, and is based on how hunters are able to hide from deer by using tree stands. The images on the guy's website are incredible.

Matt Lewis Bless your heart, but dirt doesn't vote. lol.
