Day 30: Glyptodon clavipes

This gigantic, car-sized armadillo lived in the late Pleistocene epoch in Argentina. They also likely used their armored, spiked tails to whack each other in intraspecific combat!

このカニス・ヴァリアビリス(Canis variabilis)という亜種が、シベリア系の更新世オオカミ(Pleistocene wolf:Canis lupus)と交雑してニホンオオカミが生まれました。

更新世オオカミは全長1.4mほどで現生のオオカミよりも大型動物を狩る為に顎が発達していました。彼らは日本でも見つかっています。

Working on some new scenes of Longhair and Doubledome's graphic novel today...mostly designing some more of the whacky fauna of the Pleistocene Epoch. Never understood the whole caveman/dinosaur combo when the animals of this era were so awesome in my view.

Due to the Pleistocene extinction event, humans only have one natural species in their genus. However, through genetic modification new species have been created, called GMH. Shown are 4 of the largest clades: Androtherians, tailed spacers, Magpie Bridge, and Cetásereio.

Spotted Hyena

The spotted hyena, also known as the laughing hyena, is the sole member of the genus Crocuta. Spotted hyenas once ranged along most of the Eurasian continent, however since the end of the Pleistocene era they became extinct in all but Sub-Saharan Africa.

Also made it to the video, my earlier doodle of the even larger Desmodus draculae feeding on another charismatic Pleistocene mega mammal :B. Probably not the safest host!

Agriotherium (Sour Beast) is an ursid from Miocene to Pleistocene Africa, North America and Eurasia! It was rather lightly-built for a bear, but made up for it with wide short jaws that had a rather high bite force! Based on its- (1/2)
