The dinosauroid theory, along with the often repeated fact that Troodontids were the most intelligent dinosaurs, may have led to an overestimation of its intelligence among the general public; while Stenonychosaurus did have a larger brain to body ratio when compared to other theropod dinosaurs of its time, its intelligence was likely ...

2021年8月30日 · Russell wrote several times that dinosauroid-like humanoids could have evolved in “some biospheres” (Naish & Tattersdill 2021, p. 8 unpaginated), and said more than once between 1979 and 1981 that he would be able to bring a hypothetical reconstruction of a big-brained dinosaur to SETI-themed meetings.

The early-1980s creation of a life-size Stenonychosaurus model with Ron Séguin gave Russell the impetus to bring the dinosauroid to life. Authors have disagreed on whether the dinosauroid’s creation was an exercise in scientific extrapolation or one of speculative fiction, and on whether its form reflects bias or an honest experiment ...

2007年10月23日 · The “dinosauroid” was a thought experiment, based on an observable, general trend toward larger relative brain size in terrestrial vertebrates through geologic time, and the energetic efficiency...

1 The human-like troodon descendant proposed by Russell and Seguin is often referred to as a dinosauroid, but this is a misuse of the suffix -oid, which means -like. Thus, a dinosauroid is a creature that is like a dinosaur rather than like a human. For this reason, I …

What would have happened if non-bird dinosaurs had never been wiped out by an asteroid and continued to evolve? Well, one palaeontologist thought that they w...

By late 1980, Russell had considered the invention of a hypothetical descendant of Stenonychosaurus dubbed the ‘dinosauroid’. There is likely no specific inspiration for the dinosauroid given Russell’s overlapping areas of interest, but his correspondence with Carl Sagan and his involvement in the SETI programme were likely of special ...

One theory propounds that dinosauroids would be the dominant species, displacing Homo sapiens, or even preventing their appearance on Earth. Another proffers that they would live alongside...

The dinosauroid is a concept created around the 70's and 80's, based on the hypothesis that if the non-avian dinosaurs had not been eliminated in the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, they would have continued to evolve and develop to a point where some or …
