a lot of feelings that are more than words

a new little star shines brightly above the Siberian horizon. a little Homotherium latidens, that seems to be just a few weeks old, was found in Yakutia: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-024-79546-1

Flocking sketches from last week! I just wanted to draw clouds. Gonna do a personal theme next time too, but the theme itself is a secret for now 👀 I worked a little on them after the stream, so some of them are 30min instead of 20. Here are: Zhejiangopterus, Bolg amondol, Diplobune and Iberomesornis. More info in ID as always!

Bogolubovia

- Native to the Arctic and sub-Arctic region and once numbering millions of individuals, Great auks became extinct mid-19th century. The last breeding pair, found incubating an egg, was killed on 3 June 1844, on request from a merchant who wanted specimens, with Jón Brandsson and Sigurður Ísleifsson strangling the adults and Ketill Ketilsson smashing the egg with his boot. The last individual was seen in 1852, leaving no hope that the species might be extant.

more flocking sketches! Fukuisaurus, Cartorhynchus, Nanuqsaurus and Stethacanthus

another early horse, this time it's a very proud Merychippus!!
