The neural spines on the tail - at least what's preserved of them - aren't remarkably different than those of a crocodile, they're just longer than expected relative to the length of the tail & other theropod dinosaurs of similar size.

Maybe I should have posted this sooner. Anyways, that's a two-year tribute for a lost friend. She was an artist and I got some of her art preserved. And I thought it would be a good idea to bring it back to light again. I hope you will enjoy those as much as I do. More below.

Ankylosaurs are tough to paint because their osteoderms have unique arrangements - for Zuul, every osteoderm was preserved in place, so there's no room for error!

I sculpted a 3D model based on this phenomenal illustration by so I could draw Zuul from any angle

Non-avian dinosaurs have solid palates, and palates are rarely preserved amongst Mesozoic birds, so little reason to think otherwise! Unfused palates are known in the bizarre Hesperornithes, and evidence in Ichthyornis from et al. showed something was going on.

Borealopelta (Northern Shield) from the Lower Cretaceous of what is now Alberta was so well preserved it still had the stomach contents of its last meal. They seemed to have a preference for ferns, but charcoal was also found suggesting it had fed at a recently burned forest.

A closer relative to Embolo would be Aktautitan, who forms a sister group to Embolo and its relatives. This animal is known from very complete individuals preserved mired, with much stockier limbs then other brontotheres, resembling hippos, Toxodon or Teleoceras
