User blog comment:WikiBuilder1147/Err..... sapient dinosaurs???/@comment-1743498-20130406221805

While I find this idea interesting, it seems rather overused as per Ave's reasoning. But the other thing is that I would prefer it to be a precursor civilization on a planet other than Earth, because we're better off leaving Earth's past on this wiki to what we actually know in real life.

Contrary to popular belief, dinosaurs are still around today. They've just evolved into birds, with the chicken being a descendant of the T-rex.

Velociraptors are the best dinosaur (and probably the only) to have a chance at becoming sapient. Possibly, they could have been pack hunters, and their claws could eventually be modified for using tools. If they were a civilized species, they would become a creature similar to the Karnasaurs.
