Geeks! Test Your Dinosaur Knowledge!
 

So you grew up watching "Jurassic Park" and reading Baker and Gould, eh?

So you think you know your archaeopteryx from your apatosaurs?

Well take this quiz and show us what you really know!

Dinosaur Quiz

(To my eternal embarassment, I only got 5 of 10 correct. Excuse me while I go turn in my Junior Dinosaur Hunters Club badge...)

I could tell you that I got 6/10 and leave it at that. The site says I should probably write my own book on the subject.

But the interesting thing is that I missed the first 4 questions (that I considered some of the easier ones), then got the last 6 right.

Well, I was 30 by the time the movie came out, and Baker and Gould were hardly household names, so I didn't exactly grow up on Hollywood's dinosaurs. But my first and favorite book as a kid was about dinosaurs, and I read everything I could find about them. I even wanted to be a paleontologist. There's just no money in it.

I got 7/10. Hardly feel I'm qualified to write a book on the subject, though.

7/10
Don't ask me how.
I am supposed to tell you, according to the quiz, that you can be as smart as me if they read Encarta's dinosaur article.

3/10...not sure how I did that well, I guess getting drunk during lunch is really paying off.

4/10
Having had a fascination with dinosaurs as a child I expected to do a little better. Oh well

Amazing!

You got 7/10 correct.

take that suckers

Go me, I got the big whopping 4/10 correct

Wow, 2/10, not that I ever claimed to be a dinosaur expert or anything.

6 of 10 for me. I would have gotten 7, but that lame question about Giganotasaurous threw mw off, DAMMIT!!!

I grew up watching the Land of the Lost. I think that actually hindered my performance. That show was so scientifically incorrect, it boggles the mind.

3/10. I'm still laughing at wrkime's response. Hehe. :-)
