Re: How did dinosaurs walk?



Dinosaur bipedal design is very interesting. Instead of walking upright like humans, they walked bent over - and used big tails for balance. Apparently.

I wonder how much ancient dinosaurs walked like modern ones - awkwardly but nimbly and well. If I took a movie of my budgies trotting around their play area, you would laugh! (You'd laugh harder to see them climb - think tripedal.)
