@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)

@TetZoo Within the speculative branch of African cryptozoological theorizing, the active rejection of the “dinosaur” origins for Mokele-Mbembe and ndgoko na maiji (Teke: "water elephant") sightings have opened the window to intriguing talk of extinct species in the order Proboscidea.

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
Hailing from the Island of Yoshi's, It's Pak E. Derm!
I wasn't quite fond of the original design so I decided to create a redesign.
Inspired by Easter Island Moai, Chowder (TV Show), and @TerminalMontage's Yoshi's Story video.

Yeah, I'm late, but whatever, it's never too late to draw proboscidea!
Now, I can go to sleep.

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.
