I'll take the giant fungi forests.
Fix is easy. Just call everything dinosaurs.
But doctor, I am Pagliacci.
So nice the artropodes 300 millon years ago, Millipeds with the size of an car, dragonflies big as seagulls,, also nice scorpions and spiders
I like how their used up two instances of the prefix 'mega' not knowing what there would be discovered next.
Anyway better that these bugs are not the today problem, I don't really want to find spiders as big as dogs and scorpions of 3 m.
I've recently been watching videos about the eras before the dinosaurs. Cool stuff.
Can you suggest some?
PBS Eons on youtube has some. There also some random channels that come up based on the algorithm, but you can try starting there.
Rightly so. Dinos were awesome.
