Commentary
I mean, this is SUPPOSED to be a wrong answer, but...
And yes, they're venting smoke.
Because science.

IIRC, current theory has them as sea-going reptiles (cold-blooded) rather than dinosaurs (warm-blooded)

2021-03-10 18:11:47 +0000 UTCThere's more truth to this than you might know. The word Dinosaur is only a little bit over a century old, previous to that, it was not uncommon for anyone who came across fossils and dinosaurs bones to label them as dragons.

2021-03-10 15:09:18 +0000 UTCSo why aren't plesiosaurs dinosaurs either?

2021-03-10 01:18:18 +0000 UTCThey're just hiding. It's a well known fact that dinosaurs have extremely high stealth checks. They've been around all along, we just don't notice them.

2021-03-10 00:58:39 +0000 UTCI remember the commercials from my youth, which explain this adequately: "Smoking is cool". To be clear, I was never cool enough to smoke. Unlike my best friend in high school, who managed to not quite catch himself on fire multiple times when experimenting with fireworks, but came close enough he definitely smoked on quite a few occasions. Not in a way that made tobacco companies any money, but I think he impressed his fan club a bit more doing it his way. [Note: none of them would admit to being his fan club back then. I haven't seen them in decades, so I don't know about now.]
