About
What Dinosaur Has 500 Teeth? or Don't Google Which Dinosaur Had 500 Teeth is a Don't Google joke which spread primarily on Reddit. The Google search for "which dinosaur had 500 teeth?" or "what dinosaur has 500 teeth?" will lead people to search results for "Nigersaurus." People typically warn against this, acting as though the dinosaur's name is a play on The N-word, while others attempt to bait people into searching it for themselves.
Origin
The earliest known post to warn people against Googling the 500-tooth dinosaur was posted September 6th, 2019 in /r/teenagers by a user whose account has since been deleted.[1]
