This reminds me of one of my favorite conservation stories!!
When they were trying to bring Puffins back to islands on the US east coast they decided to do so with dummies. Puffins are very social, and as a result would want to land on islands that already have puffins. The dummies looked real from a distance, but were seriously lacking up close, held up by a single peg. Puffins, being social and wanting to fit in, followed suit:
A lot of pets will ignore you, but only a cat will follow you from room to room and check your lines of vision to make absolutely certain that you can see them ignoring you.
Ok I see a post going around that is a bunch of baby mammals and that’s great and all
but life is too short to only do synapsids
So here are some baby dinosaurs. From top to bottom: Duckling, Emperor Penguin, Peafowl, Chicken, Long Eared Owl, Ostrich, Kiwi, Albatross, Undetermined Sea Bird, Budgie
