I personally prefer the humped-back interpretation from the mid-90s:

I can't quite tell if it was accidentally omitted, or if it was intended as part of one of the listed theories, or it was left out because it's just a silly meme.

Same time it turned out brontosaurus can shadow clone jutsu, velociraptors have bankai and trex can do the kamehameha

the only good thing about AI, is that at some point someone will make Jurassic park versions with different dinosaurs eras.

imagine Jurassic park with dinosaurs the way they were interpreted in the 1910s?

and imagine if they were up to modern standard? just all the velociraptors Utharaptors, and give them appropriate feathers.
