  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CK2mfgmc9G8&amp;t=595">9:55</a> the pellets that the guy in the ARG is referring to is basically just throw up. Whenever certain predators (like owls for example) eat their prey whole, they have to get rid of the stuff that can’t be digested like fur, bones or feathers. The pellet that archesuchus found was the remains of whatever the weird bird had eaten earlier. Hope this helps :)

  Fun fact: some birds (parrots and corvids) have a syrynx rather than a larynx. This is what enables them to mimic such a wide range of sounds. We have found that some dinosaurs had syrynxes as well, so the idea that dinosaurs could mimic human speech is more than likely.😊

  &quot;They broke down the barricades and entered my home, I had to flee for my life out the window well and escape into the woods...so anyway I got thirsty and went back home for water&quot; <b>survival instincts of a wet paper towel</b>

  This made me want to throw up so bad, the end of how Mikey died and how his own flock that MIND YOU they found this guy for MILES and probably kept his scent, but Mikey&apos;s flock finding him? Yeah the op was apart of that flock way before he knew it. They found out that this guy was safe, then stayed in his ceiling for safety, and now staying with him even to death due them apart. I love this arg, and I really hope this gets a part two!

  Fun Fact about Mikey: He’s a Microraptor and his species fossil was actually one of the pioneers in the understanding of bird evolution and how avian dinosaurs evolved into birds. The fossil was actually given to paleontologists by a Chinese Farmer and made one of the paleontologists actually tear up at the miraculous discovery.<br><br>NOTE: The colors on Mikey are actually accurate to the real animal too, as preserved color cells in the feathers of Microraptor reveal it had a crow-like coloring.

  Also for anyone wondering, the first bird shown with the babys were in fact real. They are Troodons, and honestly its so cool seeing them in an arg like this where you can truly recognize how terrifying they could be

  the wheezing is because the air/ oxygen quality is completely different from what they are used to. I remember years ago that someone said if you were to travel back in time, you&apos;d suffocate because the chemical composition is different, not just air quality.

  I like how they&apos;re linking the fact that some birds like parrots or corvidaes will mimic human speech especially if its linking modern bird traits to dinosaurs

  I like how the main antagonist is a large dromeosaurid. Though it looks too small to be utahraptor so maybe deinonychus. But the fact that not only is there dinosaurs but pterosaurs too which I love that this ARG does a lot of variety in paleontology
