How big is Compsognathus longipes?
89.13 centimetres!
Compsognathus longipes, often called the “chicken of the Jurassic”, was a nimble, turkey-sized dinosaur known for its slender frame and agile build. Zipping through ancient landscapes some 150 million years ago, this predator likely hunted small prey like insects and lizards, aided by its sharp teeth and swift legs. With a delicate, bird-like structure and keen senses, it was a glimpse into evolution’s path toward modern avian life.
Beach ball
Beach balls were invented in 1938, which was over 80 years ago. Beach balls are also colorful. In addition, they are very fun! The only beach ball that isn't fun is the beach ball of death.
Archaeopteryx
Often considered the "first bird", Archaeopteryx lived during the Late Jurassic (about 150 million years ago). This small, feathered dinosaur, about the size of a modern raven, measured around 1.5 feet (0.5 meters) in length and had a mix of avian and dinosaurian traits. It possessed teeth, clawed wings, and a bony tail like a dinosaur but had feathers and possibly the ability for limited powered flight or gliding.

FM Radio Wavelength
F and M are the sixth and thirteenth letters of the alphabet. Six is a perfect number, while thirteen is not. We all have our differences, and we have to learn to accept them. That's the only way we'll live in harmony.
Dodo Bird
The dodo bird went extinct sometime during the 1600s. The name comes from the sound they make (or should I say used to make since they're now extinct). So yeah, they're gone.
Rafflesia
The Rafflesia is the largest single flower in the world. It can weigh up to 10 kilograms, which is actually pretty heavy. The flower smells like rotting flesh to attract flies, which will pollinate it.
