MadSci Network: Zoology |
I read the other day that a Dinosaur with a long neck like a Brontosaurous would not have a stong enougth heart to pump the blood to its head, in to days strong gravity. It would in fact only last more then a few seconds/min according to this article and then die due to lack of blood flow. They also said that a very large whale is crushed by its own weight if on land today thus proving the theory that the earths gravity is eight times stronger today then at that time. Is this true, sounds very diferent to me then what I'm used to hearing.
