Outside Reading- Ryan Dunn

I’m a subscriber of National Geographic, and the most recent issue had an article about dinosaurs with awkward, and often amusing, qualities. For example, one dinosaur had a mouth shaped like a hammer, as though it used its snout to try and put a hole in a large rock. Another looked like a mini version of a T-Rex, except with even stubbier appendages that only wished they could be called arms. All these weird adaptations had to serve some purpose to the creature according to what we’ve established about evolution. But in my opinion it would be much easier and more efficient for evolution to take the less creative path and give the dinosaurs adaptations that would work well, and yet not be overly ridiculous. Which leads me to believe that Mother Nature just might have a sense of humor.
