Somebody needs a little meat on their bones! 

Yo, I had to hack the site to get in here. You guys heard Pterry’s birthday is this Saturday? I think they’re posting something about it tomorrow… gotta go.

Hey guys… here are your cave contest winners for the Best Cave Competition – RAPTOR WEEK EDITION!

Man these caves sure were awesome this week! It was such a tough call. Congrats guys! Winners receive special cave banners and some sweet coinage for their efforts.

Alright gang, it will be time to test your raptor knowledge at tomorrow’s Quiz Contest. We’ll be meeting at Sanoran Sands in the Paleozoic Server at 18:00 WST with Primary Games and Nitro! Study up on your raptor facts, Rex will be asking raptor questions and first person to answer each one gets a trophy.

See you there!

Flyboy just came in for a surprise late night visit! But as always… he vanishes without a trace. He took off for the door of the Tiki Lounge, but by the time we made it outside he was already gone. We’ll get you next time Flyboy!!!!!

Q: How did Raptors eggs looked like? – Cos

A: Well Cos, something like this…

These are a set of raptor eggs from the Cretaceous time period, found in China. What do you think?

Contrary to the image of raptors as cruel and merciless, young raptor fossils show that they were proportionally smaller and had bigger eyes than adults. This suggests to paleontologists that they were fed and cared for by their parents for at least a short time after their birth.

Hey gang,

In preparation for this week’s Raptor Quiz Contest, Rex and Flyboy are going to host a special study party tomorrow, Wednesday September 30th. Meet us at the Wild Walkersaurus Bunker at Sanoran Sands in the Mesozoic Server. We’ll be meeting at 17:00 WST for this awesome event.

Rex and Fly will be hanging around and talking about the dinosaur of the week, the raptor! Rex will be teaching you about all kinds of cool raptor things you get you ready for the quiz contest. Don’t let Rex have all the fun though! Bring your own arsenal of raptor knowledge and see if you can stump him.

See you guys there!

They totally got me….

Hey everyone! You know the drill!

It’s time to sign up for this week’s Best Cave Competition. Put your name on this post if you are interested in participating and we will judge your caves on Thursday.

Guess what this week’s theme is?

…..

Did you guess yet?

RAPTORS! of course

Q: What was the fastest raptor? – Sludge

A: Well Sludge, all of the raptors were very fast creatures. Their speed is what gave them such a distinct advantage as predators since they weren’t as big as a Tyrannosaurus Rex or an Allosaurus. Not surprisingly, one of the smallest raptors was probably the fastest.

You all know who I’m talking about. I’m talking about the feared velociraptor. It is estimated that a velociraptor could run up to 40 mph (60km/hr) for short bursts at a time. That is about as fast as an ostrich can run.

Do me a favor. Close your eyes and imagine an ostrich. Now imagine that ostrich with razor sharp teeth and a giant talon on it’s foot, kicking at you. Scared yet?
