I'm probably wrong but I thought the consensus was the t rex may have light downy feathers on some places but it won't look like a bird since too much feathering on such a large creature may lead it overheat especially in a warmer region.

...and there's always the possibility the young may have had a bit more feathers.

No, normal people can't edit eBird descriptions. Someone at Cornell wrote that poem and snuck it into the eBird description.

Yeah it's been like this for a couple years. The description for New Caledonian Crow used to read "smarter than most mammals, including a significant portion of humanity", but that's been removed.

Apparently that doesn’t seem to be the case:

To be honest, the zoo could REALLY benefit from a nature walking trail with that or renovating the monorail similar to Minnesota.
