Topic	Do you believe it can ever be known what Dinosaurs really sounded like?
adjl 11/16/23 11:12:18 PM #11:	GranTurismo posted... why do you believe they are in the ballpark? Because they have both a reasonable understanding of how bone structure in extant animals influences the sounds they make, plus a reasonable understanding of dinosaurs' bone structures. Put those two together and you can get a decent idea of how dinosaurs would have sounded. There's still room for soft tissue to influence things further, and that tissue won't necessarily be obvious from fossils, but it's still quite possible to make some solid guesses from the information available. --- This is my signature.
