Dinosaur Behaviors Pt. 1

As the title says, I have a few hypothesis in Dinosaur's behaviors (Note that these are not facts as we don't really have any per say) and that they might be more similar to modern animals then we think. If they were to somehow enter the modern age, there would be carnage, but also similarities. At least, I believe so. Here are some of them if you're interested.

TYRANNOSAURUS REX

It would probably chase you if you ran away from it, which would ultimately lead to death either way due to the length of its legs and the measurements taken in strides. Plus, we add in how fast it could have ran. It had ball joints in the hips which means it could turn and swivel pretty easily, given its size might I add. If it was looking at you, don't be mistaken and think it's vision was based on movement. It is indeed LOOKING AT YOU.

It probably had the prey instinct like most predators such as Lions, Tigers, and Bears OH MY. If you ran, not only would it catch up, but it would indeed see you as PREY. Also, you couldn't make yourself look bigger like you could with most modern day predators. They were intelligent creatures and would think that you are a potential meal, especially if there was more than one of you. I don't believe it would waste its energy or time trying to sneak up on just one person as that would not reach its needed calorie intake. Unless of course, it was a juvenile Tyrannosaurus.

A juvenile Tyrannosaurus would definitely consider you as food. You would be the perfect size to satisfy its hunger until it finds something more substantial to eat. It was also most likely much faster than their adult counterparts, not to mention that they would probably have much sharper teeth. Not to mention that they would be learning how to hunt properly. So, if you would somehow escape the first time, they would most likely formulate a new strategy to get you. Not like a person would plan per say, but they would find a new formation and strategy to use to make sure that you couldn't.

More importantly, they most likely did not hunt alone. Whether adult or juvenile, there was more success in numbers. And I believe that the Tyrannosaurus Rex would understand this concept, especially after a certain number of failed attempts. Even though their prey was not huge compared to them in most cases, there was the chance of injury along with the high chance of death.
