Not a dinosaur? It must have been a great surprise to find the skull of an ancient animal with very big teeth in PEI back in 1845! Sphenacodontids are non-mammalian synapsids, large terrestrial vertebrates that lived before the dinosaurs during the Permian Period.
Enjoyed reading about the smallest sauropod known to science to be described from Australian fossils - at an estimated 4.2 Tonnes "Oliver" wasn't that small! Our blog has more: https://t.co/NYvugrDVEt #dinosaurfossils #FossilFriday #Diamantinasaurus
In 1905, this ~20myo partial skeleton of Syndyoceras = collected in W Neb. It's ~2.5 ft tall w/ horns orig covered by keratinous sheath like antelope today. EH Barbour named the species "Syndyoceras cooki" to honor its discoverer Harold Cook. Illust.: Mark Marcuson #FossilFriday
Lewisuchus admixtus is an early dinosauriform from the lower Upper Triassic of Argentina. Recent discovery of 2 partial articulated skeletons provide significant novel information:

Today is #EarthDay, I really hope we still have time to save her and all the wonderful things and beings that live in her.
Plant trees and flowers, buy seasonally and local, reduce the use of plastic, fashion, electricity, water and fossil fuel consumption, recycle and reuse!🌍☀️
#FossilFriday Eretmorhipis was an Early Triassic hupehsuchian. Not only did it have a stiff bony tube of a body formed from its ribs, but its still looks like a platypus’. It even had extremely small eyes and mechanoreceptors on its snout.

We face unprecedented rates of #climatechange and #extinction. The humble foram is one of the most abundant micro #fossils in the world, and survivor of multiple mass extinctions. They whisper stories of climate change and environments through #deeptime. #EarthDay #FossilFriday
hey, it's #FossilFriday today here's some #paleoart(s):
#Metriorhynchus and #Opthalmosaurus
Dino medal for Draco (Dracorex) With a real life name as cool sounding as this (dragon king) I knew I had to make some enhancements to my old design. Draco has a deadly but cheap poison skill, so you’ll have to take advantage of his low defense quickly.

Kaishin From Fossil Fighters. Trying to alleviate some art block cause i really like drawing creatures more than i like drawing people
Dino medal for Embolo (Embolotherium) A little pal for Ardith, I absolutely love the shape of the plate on its head, definitely look up what this guy looks like in real life. The color scheme here also works really well for me

Oh wow! The Frond Fossil you found is completely Intact! This should allow Urzavosian scientists to resurrect the 'Mon within just as it was hundreds of millions of years ago!
I wonder what an ancient 'Mon really, truly looks like... 🌿

@VelcroCow2 We have certain lineages of dinosaur that have fossil evidence of very clear primary feather groups in many members and groups that have feathers but no primaries. The origin of wings and organized groups is unclear, but was certainly variable
Dino medal for Uinta (Uintatherium) A vivosaur similar to Brontoth and Elasmoth, Uinta has a variety of confusion skills. To reflect that, I wanted to give him as baffling a design as possible.

Some of my Pokemon gijinka~
Holly and Delilah have parents of a different species so I made AU designs for them taking after them.
(If youre curious why Dilla has a strange skin color its because hes a resurrected fossil its a whole thing in their story~)
Dino medals for Termino (Terminonatator) A super unique vivosaur that was really fun for me to make. Termino has the special Wild Card ability, which allows him to change his type at the start of every turn!
