Subject: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 20 Jul 01 - 07:11 PM Just been on a rare trip to they cinema to see Jurassic Park III - delighted to see the notice at the end saying that they could guarantee that no harm was done to any of the animals in the film in the course of production.
Of course the only animals in the film were dinosaurs of one sort or another - but the animation was so realistic that I actually felt a bit relieved to see that. We are pretty well at a stage when it is in fact impossible ever to be sure that anything we see on the screen is authentic or not. Does George Bush really exist in the flesh?
Anyway the point of this thread is, leaving aside dragons, does anybody know any songs about dinosaurs? At least that is my point, but whether it turns out to be what the thread is actually about is now out of my hands.

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: Murray MacLeod Date: 20 Jul 01 - 08:23 PM The difference is that dinosaurs no doubt had some lovable characteristics, Gareth. I am posting the Mark Graham song from the DT below (with minor errors rectified). Actually, with the release of JP3, plus President Bush's latest lurch into further nuclear insanity, the song has become quite topical once more.
THEIR BRAINS WERE SMALL AND THEY DIED
When I sit in contemplation of the human situation
They were creatures in a manner quite reptilian
Perhaps some asteroid that mother earth could not avoid
And when we're gone our works will start to crumble If anyone wants to learn the song and can't figure the chords out from the tune in the DT, I will post the chords as well. Murray |

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: Bob Bolton Date: 20 Jul 01 - 09:33 PM G'day, I've always thought that Mark Graham's Their Brains Were Small and They Died was an unconscionable slur on dinosaurs! It sounds like a petty, misunderstanding cheap shot at a species that dominated the planet for 150 million years - coming from a bunch of overweening apes that look like not making it to a round one million (depending on just where you draw the line in the African veldt). I've heard Faith Petric sing the song on two visits to Australia and it is a great way gently sting an audience into something like serious thought about the way we elect leaders bent on destroying the planet they think they rule. I just can't stomach the old fashioned view that the dinosaurs' demise was their fault ... that's an unacceptable anthropomorphisation of a noble species, wiped out by cosmic forces beyond their control. On a less serious note, local (Sydney - ex-England) singer/songwriter John Warner has knocked a few great childrens' songs about dinosaurs (as well as bunyips - the local Native Australians' mythical monsters of the swamps and forests) and other toothy beasts that delight the average bloodthirsty child. I might see if he is agreeable to one or two finding their way onto Mudcat. Regards, Bob Bolton |

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: CRANKY YANKEE Date: 21 Jul 01 - 10:09 AM There's "Ape Call", for instance. You want to know what I think about the sudden extinction of the Dinosaurs? Well, even if you don't, here it is anyway. They were around, oh, they tell me, one hundred aqnd fifty million years. We've only been around , what? at the outside, ten million. )(and thats's a lot more than the scientists are saying) Now then, I think that the dinosuars became civilized, and caused their own extinction, just as we are apparently doing./ After all, Some of them had all the requirements, hands, walked upright, carnivores, large brain capacity, etc. . When did they become extinct, ALL OF A SUDDEN? Do you think that in that length of time there will be anything left of our civilization that could be identified as "artificial"? Not a chance. So, I ask, , doesn't this theory deserve some consideration by the "Experts"? I say again, "Don't trust "experts" (and that includes me) Think for yourself. |

I had not seen Mark Grahame's song, but he is a fine song writer. It is a shame that Kevin Burke's group Open House is now extinct also. As Mark was a member, and the group featured his songs as well as his other skills. We saw the film last night. I thought the 'raptors' in particular were far more 'real' than many of the actors. |

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: Penny S. Date: 22 Jul 01 - 04:52 AM They didn't all die out suddenly. During the long time they dominated the Earth's fauna, some died out while others rose to take their places. Towards the end, fewer rose up to take the place of the lost ones. There were not many species around when a) the Deccan Trap basalts erupted, b) the Yucatan asteroid hit c) flowering plants gave them all stomach problems..... But it would have been circumstances and events that did for them. Penny |
Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: The Shambles Date: 22 Jul 01 - 06:09 AM I suspect that Penny is correct. Whether they evolved or became entirely extinct and the reasons for this, will keep us all arguing for many years.
Of course we may not have that many years left to argue the point?
The change from being the dominant life form, to not being that, is a lesson we should learn from them however.
Watching a film of a Cassowary being prevoked into attacking a human recently made me think. The Cassowary is a large flightless bird and has a spine or claw on its feet, similar to the one that a 'raptor' has. It suggested to me that he method of using this claw would be similar in both species? The films do not show 'raptors' useing this method, just showing it as a sort of 'switchblade'.
The cassowary jumps forward, in a sort of very effectice, if ungainly drop-kick. The spur inflicting serious, sometimes fatal (to humans) injuries. This method would not make as good a film but it would seem to be sensible method for 'raptors' of useing the claw?

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 22 Jul 01 - 07:31 AM it would seem to be sensible method for 'raptors' of useing the claw
Any young raptors reading this please note!
Yes, it would have probably have been a better movie without the humans, Shambles. But they come cheaper.
I was a dinosaur and quite OK, |
Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: Bob Bolton Date: 22 Jul 01 - 08:09 AM G'day Shambles, Indeed: " ... Whether they evolved or became entirely extinct and the reasons for this, will keep us all arguing for many years..." And most dionsaur experts seem to be saying that they did not totally become extinct - one branch of dinosuaria evolved into the birds. I have seen scientists comment that the nearest we can see to the way of life of the raptors is that of the stuthioformes - the large, flighless birds: Ostriches, Emus, Cassowaries, Rheas ... and the now extincr Moas of New Zealand. Very large flightless birds - dinornids seem to have survived until only a few thousand years ago - if we include the moas - some up to eleven feet tall, maybe until a few hundred years ago. I wouldn't like to meet an emu, a cassowary or an ostrich in a dark alley! Regards, Bob Bolton BTW: Grab - I agree fully ... I was just trying to get in a bit of outraged indignation on the part of the dinosaurs. Regads, Bob Bolton |
Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 22 Jul 01 - 08:21 AM Yes, it seems the nasty carnivorous dinosaurs that went round on two legs left descendants, but the nice ones like Triceratops and Brontosaurus that kept all four feet on the ground and went round eating vegetation didn't. That's life for you. |
Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: Naemanson Date: 22 Jul 01 - 01:13 PM McGrath, is that also a lesson for vegetarians? *grin* The Dinosaur Heresies by Richard(?) Bakker is a book dealing with the myths we have long cherished on dinosauria. Bakker speculates, and provides is proof, that the dinosaurs were warm blooded, very active, and evolved into birds. He provides all his evidence and paints a very persuasive picture of these beasts. I think Spielberg (or maybe Crichton) leaned on it quite extensively in the first movie. I know the kid had a copy in his hands when he first talks to Sam Neil's character. Jack Horner also investigated the myths of the dinosaur in his book on the discoveries of the dinosaur nurseries. He has shown that dinosaurs cared for there young and even excavated dinosaur nests with young and unhatched eggs in place. |
Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: The Shambles Date: 22 Jul 01 - 03:19 PM How about a song about advice to young raptors? Bob. I agree, a good idea to be wary of the Cassowary.

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: The Shambles Date: 22 Jul 01 - 03:24 PM The Cassowary. Good photos of the bird and its feet. |
Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 23 Jul 01 - 10:54 AM Well you had best be wary of the Cassowary with its claw that's reaching for your nuts And you will wonder whether underneath those feathers there's a raptor hungry for your guts. Well they may say for sure there's no more dinosaurs, But you will find they overstate that case - it's no good being pedantic when you are feeling frantic with a dinosaur right in your face.

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: katlaughing Date: 23 Jul 01 - 12:39 PM Some of the best scifi/fantasy anthologies I ever enjoyed were, if I remember correctly, Dinosuars Fantastic! and Return of the Dinosaurs, main editor's last name was Resnick. It included short stories by some of my favourite writers. Also, my brother works part-time at a small, but significant museum: Tate Geological and Paleontological Museum where Robert Bakker used to be the top dog. He got mad and left, taking some of their best exhibits with him and moved on down the road to the Glenrock Paleontological Museum. Incidentally, we all did hear that he was a consultant on the films, and I think the credits even mentioned it, at least on teh first one. The first link has a neat page where one can hear what they think the dinosaurs sounded like using a skull of one with air blown through in a simulation with a replica. Very interesting and uncanny. My mom used to work for and join in dinosaur digs at The Western Colorado Museum. There are several other world famous dinosaur facilities throughout Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah. Some rancher is always digging up another bone around here. It is also easy to see the incredible forces of nature, in what they speculate was the great uplift, in the stark landscape fo the West. Sorry, no song, unless you go listen to the dinosaur itself at the Tate.:-) Interesting subject, though. Thanks, kat

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: GUEST Date: 24 Jul 01 - 09:49 AM I thought crocadiles and gators and most reptiles other than the aforementioned species of birds are also descendant of the dinosaurs. Is that accurate or did NASA invent that myth too? Which birds are thought to be descendants of the dino's? I heard that recent discoveries make some folk think that dino's had feathers. A T-rex with feathers sounds like a silly beast to me, but, I don't think I'd laugh at 'em to their faces. Any experts out there know the current "facts" on these matters? |

Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: Charley Noble Date: 24 Jul 01 - 12:46 PM My mother wrote a children's book once called "The Wonderful Egg" about the first "bird" but was quite perplexed when her editors complained that her dinosaurs had all kinds of exotic skin colorings and patterns; they expected olive drab or gray for some reason. She stuck by her colors, and who knows maybe she was right! |
Subject: RE: Cruelty to dinosaurs From: CRANKY YANKEE Date: 24 Jul 01 - 01:08 PM They WERE warm blooded, as the "experts" finally agree. I think they also had feathers., well, they didn't have hair , or did they? It's highly unlikely that any warm blooded animal had "bare skin". Feathers or hair would not have become "Fossilized" They died in large groups or we wouldn't have petroleum. Think of how many dinosaurs there must have been to make all the gasoline, diesel and heating oil that we burn up every day. I REALLY DO THINK THAT THEY BECAME CIVILIZED AND EXTINGUISHED THEMSELVES. we better watch out that we don't do the same. After 150 million years there won't be anything left of our civilization that could be recognized as being "artificial" either. |

Not sure about that. Isaac Asimov, I think it was, wrote a story in which people in the future were puzzling over these strange ceramic artifacts that were all over the place, and theorising what they might be for. They were lavatory pans. I think they'd survive pretty well.
Now what would a civilised dinosaur's lavatory pan be like? I mean, they haven't been looking for things like that have they... |

Years ago I watched a program on how the first Jurassic Park was made. The dinosaurs were indeed simulations of some kind, but the sounds they made were produced by real animals. They made recordings of various animal calls and combined them to make them more powerful and exotic. I believe one sound combined the rattle of a snake with the call of a large owl. Thus animals were involved in the making of the film, but only in an auditory way. I watched this at my mother's house. She had two young kittens that were not very tame. After the demonstration of animal noises, I glanced down and realized that both kittens had leapt into my lap and were making themselves as small as possible. They were afraid of the animals they had heard. |
