Raptors were considered intelligent and had pack abilities similar to wolves. Given enough time could they build societies like people?

It's not impossible, given the right incentives, but it's not an inevitability. The primary factor for naturally occurring life is survival and reproduction; our higher understanding is kind of a gamebreaking fluke.

Humans can barely remember what happened 8 days ago, so it's hilarious when they try to tell us shit about how dinosaurs sounded or looked like.

Wasn't Troodon the most intelligent dinosaur? They could have perhaps evolved to be more intelligent. They made it all the way to the end when the meteor came.

Saying it wasn't enough implies they would've become civilized with more time. It's like saying that the reason alchemists weren't able to transmutate iron into gold was because they didn't have enough time.that's a false equivalent, tho. it boils down to this, do you believe in evolution? ot specifically, do you believe dinosaurs are capable of evolution? if they were given enough time and suitable condition for evolving, will they evolve like human from apes? --- You have the right to remain silent. anything you post will be misquoted, then be used against you. ...

But they had tens of millions of years and they didn't.topic title: If given enough time and no extinction events also, this gave me a new question even though you haven't answered the previous question regarding your view on evolution. what is your opinion of the starting point of human evolution? you can ignore this part if you don't believe in evolution.

I think what some have said is true in that they were around for an extremely long time - if prof. google is correct - about 170 million years and no sort of higher intelligence ever developed. In comparison, human ancestry goes back a mere 6 million with a fraction of that, about 200k years, being modern humans.
I think this leads us on to another question - is intelligence seen as the "endgame" here? I don't think it is. I mean, having large brain's isn't very efficient biologically. How it even happened for humans in the first place is kinda baffling but here we are. Perhaps it could have happened eventually but I don't think in all probability it ever would have done because it just wouldn't be necessary or efficient to develop that way. Still, a t-rex in a top hat is funny to think about! ... Copied to Clipboard!
