fahrquad Posted April 7, 2019 Report Posted April 7, 2019 I wish the chicken skeleton was more upright, but you can see the similarities. The enlarged sternum (breastbone) on the chicken is an evolutionary development for anchoring flight muscles. https://www.google.com/search?q=chicken+and+theropod+skeletons&tbm=isch&source=univ&client=firefox-b-1-d&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjTx-Lr5b7hAhUNVa0KHXvHAOIQsAR6BAgJEAE&biw=1366&bih=626#imgrc=3gHTDaeFjeMmaM: Quote
