Triceracopter: If Only Evolution Had Worked Out Differently

The Triceracopter is half Triceratops, half helicopter. Built as a sculpture in 1977 by artist Patricia Renick, it's now available now for the discerning collector/dinopilot.

The Triceracopter is subtitled "Hope for the Obsolescence of War," and I guess that's why it's a dinosaur combined with a military helicopter. But somehow I feel like it promotes war. I mean, if the US had dinosaur helicopters, you think they wouldn't want to try them out? I mean, come on, dinosaur helicopters!

Just don't say anything like that if you're looking to acquire this piece of art. The artist might not be down with that interpretation. [Facebook via NotCot.org]
