#flish

Made a fan tfiw critter:

An iconic future critter, the Ocean Flish from The Future is Wild stands remarkable of this documentary most featured animals, these constitute a bizarre new radiation of vertebrates from the ocean after tetrapods were wipe out of the face of earth, becoming one of the many recovering animals on 200 million years hence.

This inhabits the coastal regions of the new supercontinent, thanks to the environment lack of competitors that were wiped out 100 million years before with no other trace of land tetrapods left, the sky was basically open for this clade of fish to take over in the last millions of years, being this one of many representatives of a larger group that have diversified across the coasts of the Global ocean and inside parts of the main continent.

According to the canon of the documentary, flishes are descendant of cods, or at least they come from a branch that diverged from cods a time ago that after the mass extinction recolonized the surface and upon the vacuum they developed the ability to fly thanks to strong wings derived of their pectoral fins.

Unlike tetrapods wings, the flish arm anatomy evolved in a way totally divergent in structure, having a short very muscular arm made of three main bones joined in a way that provides a stable and strong base, as well providing great flexibility while flapping and lift enough to fly.

In a general view the anatomy of this animal is remarkable for preserve the Actinopterygii shape with high derived features such as the almost lobed fish like fins, the jawcaps and the strange horizontal fluke instead of the vertical posture of current fishes as well other external features include the lack of any operculum totally sealed, an spiracle upper head that might be related to pulmonar respiration and the most remarkable feature, it extendable jaw.

This peculiar jaw configuration supposedly help them in their method of hunting as these are dipping predators of the pelagic silverswimmers, having the only feature of Actinopterygii developed further with a very extendable mouth with only 2 rows of 3 teeth on the tip.

Although the documentary didn't expose more about their behavior or lifestyle outside of hunting, the main manga did some minor exploration of their land behavior being there showing that they raise their children like altricial seabirds, as well showing that they are capable to stand on land with their pectoral fins up and extended without any folding capability.

As said before, is well known that this animal also has a relative on the forest regions on the north west region of Pangea II but on base of the book description, there may be also a really larger diversity of these derived flying vertebrates covering different niches similar to modern birds, specified by the mentions of comparable analogues of birds.

Probably to add more about this fact on the conference made of the doc (included in the DVD extras) Dixon exposed some concept ideas of more flishes or at least different flish color pattern configurated to specific ecological niches based again on birds.

After little more than a year, I'm bringing my design for a "Titan Flish" back to give it a full makeover, along with its own piece.

For those not in know, I doodled up a quick sketch of a redesign of the "Titan Dolphin" from the now-canceled game based in the universe of The Future is Wild. Based on a few other redesigns that I saw at the time, I went and changed the Titan Dolphin into a giant, terrestrial Flish that evolved to be an active predator of Panegna II's various deserts. If we're going with the idea of fish evolving into the same niches as birds after they went extinct, what's to say that a few of them at least become like the giant, predatory theropod dinosaurs of old?
