While that T-Rex would have been way too warm with that many feathers, it is interesting how hard it is to recreate what ancient animals actually would have looked like.

Here are some modern animals recreated using the same "shrink wrapping" technique often used in older depictions of dinosaurs where they just attached the bare minimum required amount of muscles and skin and called it a day.


Baboon


Swans


Chicken


Pelican and Stork


Killer Whale


Bald Eagle :911:


Dolphin


Human

This meme makes no sense to me, the popular dinosaur depictions always have plenty of muscle bulk, they are not these "vacuum shrunk" caricatures.
