In what is now Silesia, Poland, wounded Lisowicia bojani encounters Smok wawelski. Lisowicia is exhausted and it can be not so hard prey for Smok.

Revising the therocephalians and most cynodonts in book (in preparation) would be a PAIN… but now I am not as confident depicting them as furry as I was before … so I am stuck

Throwback to some old stylized art I did of Terminal Permian Animals (and a Late Permian Inostrancevia). Fromfluffy dicynodonts to the large and venomous Megawhaitsia.

Only three groups of Synapsids/therapsids survived the end-Permian mass extinction event into the Early Triassic: dicynodonts (top), therocephalians (center), and cynodonts (bottom). Only the latter (our relatives) survived into the Jurassic.
