Without knowing for sure, I believe Elith is referring to the The Rite of Spring by Igor Stravinsky in the original Fantasia (1940).

Tried a different browser and that worked.

Parasaurolophus and Pachycephalosaurus are totally rad critters! Absolutely fascinating bone-structures on both of 'em. They're also dinos I got Senna to draw for me at previous Geek Girl Cons. :)

I can't find the article atm but a study recently proposed out we've probably been underestimating dinosaur intelligence in general, suggesting T. Rex is closer to intelligence to baboons and dromaeosaurs and troodontids closer to the Chimpanzee range!

When I found out that birds were therapod dinosaurs I was a) thrilled and b) unsurprised.

I have made exactly this argument myself! I sometimes like to think about finding booted-claw bootprints on the moon... XD

oh gosh yeah! considering that every time researchers delve into bird intelligence the estimates keep going *up*, and birds basically *are* theropods that survived the extinction! also I keep thinking about that one comic you did where Kim was speculating about what life would be like if the Permian extinction event never happened, it's one of my favorites, and an inspiration for my "what if the Chicxulub impact had been a near miss instead" alternate-earth story. XD

Triceratops, Stegosaurus, and Ankylosaurus!

Is Elith referring to a real cartoon?
