Wild boar is one of ~120 species which are extinct in Ireland due to human activity. 🐗

My latest paleo-fish art. This time it is the extinct swordfish Xiphiorhynchyus who hears the dinner bells a-ringing. Big thanks to @HodariNundu for introducing me to this double-bladed species.
The huge extinct sperm whale Livyatan melvillei measured an incredible 18 metres long. It had huge curved teeth lining its jaws, unlike modern sperm whales which grow conical teeth only on their lower jaw.

Hoping that one day, ufotable will adapt the final volume of Kara no Kyoukai.
I want to see how they would animate the extinction of humanity. Along with that, I can see the film serving as a re-introduction of the existence of DDD.
I'm doing a project for a class at school on the Dire Wolf, and because I'm too lazy to find a picture and cite it correctly, I drew my own interpretation of the Dire Wolf vs the Grey Wolf based on my research of the extinct creature.
