Scientists and paleontologists have long wondered whether dinosaurs could still exist at this age. But when you see a photo like this, you won't just be amazed, you'll be mad!
The photo below shows a T-rex being held in captivity, treated by handlers poorly as it was tied in a trailer with its mouth shut being transported to somewhere we don't know.
Like the Jurassic Park stars, this poor creature's mouth was clipped by large ropes with only thick cloth in between the rope and the mouth cutting its skin. The inhumane treatment of the T-Rexsends shivers and cringes from the netizens.
Here's Jonathan Chase's post regarding the said photo:
- “This is an outrage. This beautiful, endangered Tyrannosaurus Rex was bound to a trailer, unable to move for 30hrs. This is animal cruelty, at its worst. The perpetrators of this horrible act should be fined, and their rights to own exotic and domestic animals should be stripped from them.
Please help me raise awareness about this heinous injustice. Dinosaurs are animals too, and they deserve our love and care. How would you feel if you were bound to the back of a truck for 30hrs?
Share this photo and help bring a stop to cruelty towards our beloved Jurassic friends.”
While it's apparently a joke, imagine if a dinosaur got caught and tied up in a trailer for thirty hours - it's really going to be a wild ride getting stuck at this position for long! Such torture can only handled by the toughies.
Many netizens, especially fans of dinosaurs and the Jurassic Park, believed what Jonathan posted and didn't really accept the thought of maltreating animals well. They didn't know it was a fake photo anyway.
Good thing there are still those who came into their senses, pointing out that dinosaurs don't exist anymore. But here are some of the witty statements of some people who were able to catch the drift:

- There (sic) doing a show on the autopsy of one… it is possible that this is real. We can clone animals from DNA… yet you think a dino is impossible. The really upsetting part is if it is real (and a video instead of pics would have been better) who do you think paid for it and how much you think it cost? – James Campbell
- “Is this real” comments are cracking me up!!! Cmon people you can’t be that stupid!!!!! Hints the term EXTINCT!!!! Just because they live in “Jurassic Park and Jurassic World” doesn’t mean they are REAL and roaming the earth again. WOW. And we wonder why our younger generations and youth are amounting to nothing these days. – Michelle Christine Davis
- You people saying this is obviously fake need to learn what a joke is. I’ve lost faith In humanity once again. I hope the T-Rex breaks free to kill all us all. – Jesse Eugene Baker
- See!!!!!!! I knew it! I knew it!!!!!! They still exist!!!!! Why make them suffer like that! At leaat make a cage! Or place some tube to mouth that is connected to water or something! Didnt you know that they could die with heat stroke!!!!! Or worst be extinct!!! Have some heart! And the guy taking the picture!!!! Use your phone and call animal welfare or something! Geesh! So stupid!!! Are you looking for that kind of reaction? Really? Do you actually believe on the description of the picture? Lol – Maui Guico Manalo
- I’m amazed at the ignorance of the post… I’m more amazed because the people screaming “fake” are saying the reason it’s fake is because the trex could break free…. Nevermind the fact that dinosaurs have been extinct for thousands of years ?? The level of stupidity in this post is giving me a migraine.. – Lisa Falls
