I think he looks cooler. Kind of like a pimp wearing a coat.

If it looked like the pic in the OP, I would feel less comfortable around birds.

Wouldn’t they be the ones devouring?

Not always. T Rex was often on the menu for T Rex

What did Tyrannosaurus rex eat? Each other
quote:

It turns out that the undisputed king of the dinosaurs, Tyrannosaurus rex, didn't just eat other dinosaurs but also each other. Paleontologists from the United States and Canada have found bite marks on the giants' bones that were made by other T. rex, according to a new study

It was only after discovering the bite marks were from a T. rex that Longrich realized the bone itself also belonged to the behemoth. After searching through a few dozen T. rex bones from several different museum fossil collections, he discovered a total of three foot bones (including two toes) and one arm bone that showed evidence of T. rex cannibalism, representing a significant percentage.

"It's surprising how frequent it appears to have been," Longrich said. "We're not exactly sure what that means."

Still has rip and tear teeth. I love the but possibly scavenger thing though. Any fricking predator that comes across a free meal will take a few bites. Your dog will eat a dead bird or squirrel in the yard, given a chance.

If dinosaurs don’t look like dinosaurs anymore, then I’ll lose interest in them. I don’t care about a bunch of overgrown Emus.

Yes

When they do that survey of people who think they could beat up animals, I'm gonna vote YES I can beat up a T-Rex with feathers.

Objection! We all know that the T-REX is a good guy now! ( Maybe the best SNL skit in years. )

I’m sure it would take your disdain accordingly when it was eating you.
