I think it was on Ben G Thomas on YT that I’ve seen academic references saying various ways dinosaurs likely sounded like birds in their vocalizations. Do you know of any scientifically grounded reconstructions of possible sounds?
There were just a bunch of song birds outside my window, and my mind drifted onto this. I want to picture something like the first few scenes of the original Jurassic Park but with feathered songbird caricatures whistling and tweeting either at some monstrously low tone or some ridiculously high pitch for their size like a bunch of Mike Tyson’s frolicking around.
I’m not sure, but considering most animals make at least some sounds none of us would guess came from them, I wouldn’t be surprised if the topic of their vocals was just abandoned by science and left up for interpretation.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
