Regardless of intelligence, I still hold that bipedal dinosaur tool use would be a lot higher than we've learned to expect from animals with reptile-like brains. That sheer amount of animals with their hands free in an ecosystem isn't something we have an intuitive framework for.

Definitely a lot of picking up kills with both hands and dragging them somewhere, probably some handheld eating while walking, and lots of picking up rocks to break stuff. We aren't used to imagining the flintstones-y scenarios that were most likely common.

This follows the Reddit Flag Rules but makes it significantly worse. The detail in the current one gives it a heraldic quality, & the vines and leaves and trellis are the best part of the grape motif. I’d maybe take out the text ribbon and replace it with an x or something.
