Scientist have ruined my childhood.

According to scientist, the triceratop never existed. Everything I know is a lie!

The title should read "two scientists". Not just scientists.

Nooooooooooooooooooooo

I dont know the website, but if this is true.... :cry:

I find it funny that, instead of saying the torotops (or whatever its called) did not exist, they decide to say the tricerotops never existed.

"YEs, lets take a widely-accepted name, say it never existed, and then call it this weird name"

Boo! First the Veloceraptor was found out to be a Giant Bird ( which it's not, Birds Can't open doors) and now this! damn you scientists get busy reviving the dinosaurs instead of ruining many childhoods!

Damn! Then the Scientists were right! We're all doomed if birds have learned to open doors, I'll never go through the long grass again :(

PSHHH Ankylosaurus for the win. Lockedge

Just lol'ed at this comment that was on that website: "They clearly have misinterpreted their findings. Torosaurus never existed, it is just a large Triceratops." :lol:yentlequible

The land before time is dead to me now. *cries*.XilePrincess

Little Foot is crying somewhere right now. You take it back!

I saw this yesterday. Did anyone actually READ the article? They got rid of torosaurus and now they will all be triceratops.

I guess I forgot this was the internet.

You should never take educated guessesnor theories too seriously. They are valid, but irrefutable. It's always entertained me, " is wasor could have been wrong." Who's always right? Some people may think they are but nobody is always right.

So all there saying is that this:

Is just a younger version of this:

That proves nothing? other than confirming that they have been calling an entire species of dinosaur something else..

Oh ffs. This is a bummer and I agree we should call it a Triceratops anyways instead of the other name.

"Scientists sure enjoy crushing my childhood memory of The Land Before Time (they nixed Brontosaurus a while back). Hopefully they won't delete Triceratops too."

Oh what the hell I didn't know that!!!

"Oh my. Just realized why her name was Sarah.... Tri-Sarah-Tops!!!"

FFFFFF. Again I never noticed that though I don't know why it makes me rage.

It was already known that triceratops skulls changed throughout their development, but not that the final result was a torosaurus. Torosaurus will now be abolished as a species and specimens reassigned to Triceratops

New Scientist

Bummer... now I can't watch Jurassic Park without knowing it's all a lie.

That still isn't as bad as the realization that instead being pure awesomeness represented in this picture

Velociraptor's were actually giant birds with teeth
