The Dinosaur Discovery That Changed Everything

Picture this: in 1824, a muddy Oxford prof stumbles on a massive jawbone in the English countryside and unknowingly launches the entire field of dinosaur science. Megalosaurus was the OG dino, but early scientists thought it was just a giant lizard! The wildest part? They had no word for 'dinosaur' yet, and some fossils were found right near London. Fast-forward: modern tech reveals Megalosaurus was a fierce, upright predator—not a lazy lizard. It’s wild how one fossil can flip our whole view of Earth’s past! #Science #Dinosaurs #HistoryNerd
