C'est révolutionnaire pour l'époque! Ce petit marsupial restera dans l'Histoire comme la Sarigue (Opossum) de Cuvier (on sait aujourd'hui que ca n'est pas vraiment une sarigue, mais un marsupial disparu très proche). Le fossile est visible @Le_Museum .

This cursed animal is from Cuvier’s ‘Animal kingdom’ (1837)

Frédéric Cuvier was born #OTD in 1773. These illustrations are from his 4 vol. 'Histoire naturelle des mammifères', 1824-42, written with Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire. The animals were mainly depicted from life. Included is a red panda, Ailurus fulgens, which he named in 1825.

What if BTAC isn't over and Dini/Burnett are playing the long game?
Mister Wing is created by Dorian, who works with Cuvier, who has ties to Kobra, who just so happens to be harboring Firefly 🧐
Today, P. cuvieri has its own genus, Cimoliopterus. We recognise it as an ornithocheiromorph, a long-winged, ocean-going species closely related to Ornithocheirus and Anhanguera. It was among the last of the toothed pterosaurs. But can we still consider it a giant?
P. cuvieri should thus be remembered as the actual first pterosaurian 'giant', a species that originated the concept of supersized extinct fliers. Saying the more widely popularised Pteranodon was the first giant is a claim jump: it simply wasn't.
And, OK, a 5 m wingspan is not that exciting when we know of 10 m wingspan azhdarchids, but in 1852 this was a big deal: not only a flying reptile almost 2x larger than any living bird, but the largest flying animal known at that time. P. cuvieri was a real game-changer.
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!

While the pre-Origin species concepts of Cuvier (pictured), Hooker, Humboldt, Agassiz, Herschel, Whewell, Henslow, and other Victorians have obviously flunked the test of time, they were neither unsophisticated nor religiously obscurantist
