dunno but in my opinion, Spear and Fang are actually safer in the more human side of the Primal world, mainly cuz idk, zombie sauropods, evil bats, giant red tyrants, a fucking night feeder and etc, where as they only have to deal with humans that have to use leverage at least.
Now our sauropod can sneeze lightning to zap predators or make same species rivals blow up in spectacular fashion by hitting their ventral cavity (cause of all the fermentation gas!). This is why sauropod fossils are so often scattered little bits. I just solved sauropods, see?
It works because modern humans have seen more elephants than sauropods, so elephant feet look right to them. But medieval people had seen more horses than elephants, so they were just like “yeah, like big horse-pigs with hooves, cool, I understand”
Congrats to our friend, @DoubleBeam on the publication of this new paper! Eagle-eyed readers of Cary’s book with @TedRechlin, Sauropods, will have noticed the coughing Diplodocus. Check out the new open access paper for the full story! #FossilFriday https://t.co/4CUPJ6AZQU
This #TheropodThursday, a hungry Ceratosaurus finds himself on the wrong end of a Diplodocus. From @TedRechlin & @DoubleBeam’s book, SAUROPODS, available at https://t.co/v0Db2fDICC
And it’s been suggested actually that dinosaurs originally lay softshell eggs instead of hardshell, which makes sense for how extremely rare they are overall in the fossil record & how the ones we do find are hardshelled (sauropods, oviraptorids, early avians, hadrosaurs, etc.)
Pastel Paleotober Day 26: Amargasaurus 🦕
Amargasaurus was an early Cretaceous sauropod from Argentina. While not as long as some other sauropods, its neck sported extended vertebral spines which, unlike spinosaurus and dimetordon, are not thought to have supported a skin sail.
Ep.9 of #ChasmoPodcast is here! Two Xinjiang sauropods, Phiomicetus, & @WryCritic's pterosaur primer in the news. Marie Hubrecht's Verdwenen Werelden is this month's VDA, and Niels interviews David James Armsby, creator of the animated Dinosauria series!

Dino Fact!
Yunnanosaurus (Yunnan Lizard) is a sauropodomorph from Early-Mid Jurassic China! It was one of the last "prosauropods" to ever live! It's believed to primarily be quadrupedal, but like other prosauropods, could also stand on two legs!

Dino Fact!
Eoraptor (Dawn Thief) is a eusaurischid from Late Triassic Argentina! It was among the first dinosaurs to ever live! Since it resembled both theropods and prosauropods, it was put in Eusaurischia, the group the other two diverged from!

Saurobrum and Mbembrein, Rock/Psychic type fossil commissions I made for @lewekaregion based on sauropods, mokele mbembe, wizards, and psychics, to learn more about this line check them out on Twitter or Instagram! #Pokemon #PokemonSwordShield #fakemon #art #PokemonGO #Nintendo
I mocked up this comp in Maya to get an idea of lighting, and Tim chose the colour warmth he liked. Cooler colours are emphasized in the plants, sky, and parts of the sauropods, while bright warm colouration marks each species as unique and highlights them against the cool
Baryonyx may have lived in a semiaquatic environment with shallow water, lagoons, and marshes. It also lived and coexisted with other theropods, ornithopods, and sauropods, as well as pterosaurs, crocodiles, turtles and fishes. Art by John Sibbick.
“In a world full of creatures like Torvosaurus and the Supersauropods, being small has its clear disadvantages. Which is why Fruitadens has developed such a tough exterior (both physically and emotionally)...”#morrisonWC
#Amaura & #Aurorus (my second favorite fossil Pokemon) are based on #sauropods, specifically #Amargasaurus, which were speculated to have had possible skin sail extensions on their vertebral spines.
Aurorus is here! I took some liberties with the size listed in the Pokédex, but bigger is always better for sauropods, right?
