Thanatotheristes is a late Cretaceous tyrannosaur whose name means 'Reaper of death.' I couldn't help this image of it in Grim Reaper guise popping into my head.

“Dragging a ladder through long rows of bookshelves can be exhausting. It’s much more efficient to have a co-worker who’s able to reach the top shelves on their own or at least give you a boost climbing up.”

Highlighting fantastic palaeoartists:
渔火 on xiaohongshu, a mixed-medium artist from China. Magical depictions of theropods. Pictures are panels from their Spinosaurus comic.

Koolasuchus cleelandi Illustration!
In this Illustration, I have depicted a scene of koolasuchus making a desperate attempt to flee the dangers of a fellow Koolasuchus. The seasonal flooding has brought new hunting grounds, and so more competition and fights for those hunting ground rights #paleoart

Spontaneous Carcinometamorphosis, commonly known as Mancini's disease after the famed boxer-turned-crustacean Bruno Mancini, is a disease that will slowly turn skeleton to exoskeleton, hands to claws, lungs to gills, until a human being finds itself where all the roads of evolution lead: crab.

World octopus day, you say? Very well, then... here is an octopus (possibly a male argonaut). No clue what the jellyfish is. The jellyfish is swimming down to try and get away from the bright flashing lights.

It’s been months since I’ve drawn anything 🫠, but I found these old Mortifan concepts on my IPad.
I love this pigeon-loving, ghost-like, mortician. He’s more of a symbolic, character in Malignant Remedy, and tends to appear during the most dire moments.

Neste estudo mostramos alguns equinoides (ouriços-do-mar) fósseis da Formação Jandaíra (Cretáceo Superior, Bacia Potiguar) que foram perfurados por gastópodes (caramujos) durante ações de predação e até mesmo relações parasíticas ocorridas há cerca de 80 milhões de anos!
