Un sauropode aux jambes musclées
November 12, 2012
Alexandre Fabre recently bought a French-language comic-book, Les Dinosaures by Plumeri and Bloz, and found this in the third volume:
The text reads:
Et parfois, les paléontologues font des announces très marrantes, comme le Brontomerus …
… un sauropode aux jambes musclées … qui se défendrait en donnant des coups de pied!
“Aie! Un dino qui fait de kung-fu? Ils ne savent plus quoi inventer!”
Which I roughly translate as:
And sometimes, paleontologists make very funny announcements, such, as Brontomerus …
A sauropod with muscular legs … which defends itself by kicking!
“Ouch! A dino that does kung-fu? Whatever will they think of next!”
Many thanks to Alexandre for bringing it to my attention and scanning the relevant panels.
