So, on channels like NatGeo and History there have been several shows about what would happen if humans disappeared from the earth instantaneously and left everything else behind. Besides the differences in the some things both shows say that within a million years pretty much all traces of human influence on the planet would be gone. All buildings, all recoded knowledge, and all other physical traces would be absorbed back into the earth.
So, that got me thinking....
What if the dinosaurs where intelligent?
It would be a possibility. Consider, there were about 65 million years between the asteroid that killed the dinos and humans started to take hold on the planet. They also were on the planet for 100 million years. Assuming that they progressed in a similar fashion as humans have in the past 100k years, it would be totally possible that dinos had intelligence and were technologically advanced.
From the bones that we discover, we can only postulate what they were like. In the past few years, there have been revisions on the type animal that the T-Rex was and the social ability of the Velicoraptors.
