Doodles from today's flocking paleostream featuring Dinocephalosaurus, Enoploura, Achelousaurus and Arizonasaurus Iced Tea.

We’re celebrating Saint Patrick’s Day in a big way, with one of the largest known deer: the Irish Elk (Megaloceros giganteus)! It was originally discovered in bog deposits in Ireland. This megafauna could weigh up to 1,500 pounds (680 kg) and its antlers could reach an incredible 13-ft- (4-m-) spread. Once ranging from western Europe to China, this animal died out some 10,000 years ago. However, at least one population, living in Russia’s Ural Mountains, managed to survive until about 7,770 years ago, long after the end of the Pleistocene. 

See the Irish Elk up close in the Museum’s Hall of Advanced Mammals! We’re open daily from 10 am-5:30 pm. Plan your visit.

I fucking love prehistoric planet, man. I love dinosaurs and I grew up on David Attenborough documentaries. The modeling is so good!!! And they show the dinosaurs as animals!!!!!! They're not shown as some serious mythical being that just eats and fights!!! Its like a regular animal documentary just with animals that aren't around anymore!!!! AND THEY HAVE FEATHERS!!! AND THE THEROPODS AND PTEROSAURS HAVE AVIAN BODY LANGUAGE!!!! There is nothing like the autistic joy of seeing a mononykus tilt its head like a bird when assessing something. AND THE CAMERA ANGLES! AND THE DETAILS!!!

I'm now curious if it's safe to pet the springrap

highly unpredictable

I hate it when I'm in an argument about dinosaurs then it gets dangerously close to the Tyrannosaurs or literally the T-rex and I'm sitting there like: Bro, I'm Literally a Tyrannosaurus. Trust me bro. I was there.

Like- Do you know who you're talking to? Look at me, I am OBVIOUSLY a Tyrannosaurus rex rn. Are you stupid?

a little friend is swimming by, just wants to say hi

This blog is officially over

Uhhh hi everyone who still follows this blog! I'm probably going to remake this, but as a sideblog dedicated to my therianthropy. So i'm probably going deactivate this blog after I download all the pictures from my pinned I like. I'm just a lot more active on mobile and I don't think I'd ever go back to this blog. So yeah, we had a good run but I think it's over. Or I might just never come back to this, but keep it up so everything's still here. I just didn't want this blog to end on some reblog from an increasing number of years ago.

My new main is @confused-canid though, if you're interested. I love this blog so much and it hurts to do this, but I just can't see myself ever coming back. So yeah I don't think I'll deactivate, but I probably won't ever post here again.
