New species of Oligocene killer dolphin Ankylorhiza! A. serratidens had, you guessed it, serrated teeth, common in sharks, rare in mammals, thing in common with some sabercats. At 6 m long you know it was not an anchovy specialist :B And there's remains of an even bigger species!

Terror Cenozoico 5: Iberosuchus macrodon Iberosuchus es un elemento que no termina de encajar en el momento en el que le tocó existir. Es un horror más semejante al de la época de los dinosaurios, o incluso de antes. #paleontologia #cocodrilo #ciencia

A Sea of Fangs and Jaws No life is safe in these waters. In this realm, even the apex predators must fear the dark, foreboding depths that lie beneath #Mosasaur #dinosaur #paleoart #creaturedesign

So apparently the first known truly marine amphibian in the fossil record was found in China, lived in the Triassic and is suggested to have been some sort of wobbegong-frog thing (wobbefrog?) which I just had to doodle :B my first attempt at one of these plagiosaur things, too.

Terror Cenozoico 3: Megamphicyon giganteus Los rinocerontes eran el objeto de estudio de Olivia, una zoóloga que viajó al Mioceno para documentar a sus ancestros remotos. Allí divisó un grupo en una sabana arbolada, ramoneando de los arbustos. (1/5) #paleontologia #ciencia
