Naturally, it’s Ankylosaurus. Just look at this armoured tactical turtle and tell me you do not love this silly little guy!

Just wanting to eat his plants. Wanna gnaw on him? Tough luck, it hurts and you cannot crack that shell. Also, he will fucking break your kneecaps with his built-in hammer while you’re bothering him.

Spirit animal.

Technically not a dinosaur but a Pterosaur, but still, Quetzalcoatlus https://dino.fandom.com/wiki/Quetzalcoatlus.

Would make my morning commute way more fun.

Quetzalcoatlus gets my vote as scariest creature to have ever lived. If one landed in my yard and saw me through the window, decided it wanted in, it is getting in.

I could maybe prevail with the 12-gauge sitting here, but I wouldn't bet on it. By the time I got over the shock of seeing it, the thing would crash it's head through my front window and snatch me. Betting one could hammer through the roof given a couple of minutes.

Outdoors? Pretty much zero hope. Long beak, flies, moves fast, morals of a seagull? Yikes.
