The woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius), because I want proboscideans living where I am.

It's #FossilFriday, so I thought you might enjoy these Platybelodons 😃A proboscidean (group that incl. elephants🐘) that lived ~15-5 mya in Eurasia, Africa & N. America. These are in the Beijing Museum of Natural History. #Palaeoart by Nikolai Litvinenko. #mammals #fossils
Gomphotherium is an extinct genus of proboscidean that lived in the early Miocene of North America.
@matthewcobb @morethanadodo There are quite a few other animals with trunks (trunks = extended upper lip + snoot). And not all elephants (proboscideans) had trunks, the earliest didn't. But certainly elephants really went to town with their sniffers! 🐘 (pics: Wikipedia/dinopedia)

Photo attempt number one: I curse my house for its terrible lighting.
I’m looking to find a home/buyer for my 9ishx12ish vinyl #mastodon poster. As a part of my thesis, it never saw the light of day until now. (Can also print new copies)

Cuvieronius was a strange, elephant-like animal related possibly to the mastodons, and probably lived in a variety of environments from chilly highlands, to warm jungles. It was well-known for its rather spiraled tusks unlike any other known proboscidean. Twisted!
Hey, I recently hit 2,000 followers! Hooray! Hello everyone -- I'm Ali and my research looks at head muscles of herbivorous dinosaurs, dicynodonts, and elephants and their extinct proboscidean relatives! Thanks for following. :)
Sicilian dwarf elephant (Palaeoloxodon falconeri), a proboscidean from Pleistocene Sicily that reached 1.3 meters in height. #paleoart #elephants

Hi, I’m Cameron and I’m an artist that paints mostly extinct and extant organisms ( primarily on the largest of animals such as non-avian dinosaurs, proboscideans, and cetaceans )

Once more, I am announcing Truncated, East Coast Elephants! On display April 6th, my BFA gallery will be available for public viewing at Rowan University’s Westby Hall!

1/2 I’m back once more, and I brought a little history along. Of who? Donny! My favorite of favorite characters. Donny developed in early 2018, turning two years old this February.

WIP of a Monty plate for Truncated! I’m planning on doing a few of these at 18x24 for other proboscideans. Within, I tried a few new rendering styles in illustrator and photoshop.

Time for another Fossil Fracas related update for Truncated:
My Long Wall of Proboscideans is full of all sorts of bizarre characters. Eventually I’m planning on characterizing every species.
