After a certain age people stop asking you what your favorite dinosaur is, and I think that's sad.

My current one's the Anchiornis, because it's in the same clade as birds so it's in their family tree, and it really looks like a prototype of a bird. It had 4 wings for example, but it already looked very birb-y:

(Figured I'd just turn an earlier comment into an actual post because why not)

Herculoids?

I Think you found it! THANK YOU

The name “Herculoids” seems familiar and the Wikipedia description of Tundro is right on!

However the thumbnails don’t seem to be quite the appearance I remembered, but maybe that’s just poor memory

Woo-hoo, go, Tundro

Edit: maybe my memory is conflating multiple shows but this must be part of it. Holy crap, how did I like this? Watching it now, it was so bad

And how did this pedo episode ever air? “Hey kids, come on into my white windowless van. I’ll take you far from here and make your wishes come true”. This could have used a little stranger danger!” Mania, but predates that
