Anchisaurus, Brian Franczak
The forest is home and the forest is horror to Anchisaurus. Some scents mean life, and some mean death. Some sounds are friendly, others chill the dinosaur's heart. The softness of the mud under its feet delights, while the sucking bogs of certain haunts bring panic. The forest is all yin and yang and Anchisaurus is its philosopher.

So in the game Let's Build A Zoo you can breed the main game animals to create different variants. Unfortunately, the DLC animals don't have this option (understandable).
I really like dinosaurs though and the variant system so I decided to create fan-variants. Pictured below is the Ammosaurus/Anchisaurus.

Been crazy busy the last two weeks painting plywood dinosaurs for Dino Weekend at my trolley museum. Finally got to see them on display along the tracks this weekend.
I’ve always loved visiting parks with full-size dinosaur animatronics or statues. The goofier the better. So it’s honestly super cool that I got to create my own little roadside dinosaur park.
I painted each side of the dinosaur with a different design so they’d look different going out on the trolley line vs coming back.
The creatures are:
Dilophosaurus, which may have been the dinosaur that created the Eubrontes fossil tracks found throughout the Connecticut Valley.
Anchisaurus, an early sauropodomorph whose bones were found in East Windsor, CT. They are believed to be the first scientifically-studied dinosaur bones found in North America.
Camarasaurus, because I wanted to include a sauropod that isn’t as well known. This standee is 16 feet tall, so I had to paint it on its side.
Also Triceratops and Stegosaurus, ‘cause you gotta have the classics
Planning on adding more for next year. I’d really like to do more East Coast dinosaurs like Dryptosaurus, Hadrosaurus, and Podokesaurus. And some non-dinosaur prehistoric creatures like Carnufex, Postosuchus, Quetzalcoatlus, Dimetrodon, Arizonasaurus, and Estemmenosuchus.

Monday Musings: Sauropod Phylogeny
I know, it has been a bit since my last post. It is preparation time for field season! I am so excited to get out and start digging again! That is why I decided this month would be all about sauropods. (And I apologize, this is going to be a long post). We might have a few at the site I work at so it seems very appropriate. Sauropods are some of the most easily recognizable animals dead or alive. Massive bodies with long necks and tails and pillar-like legs, they are often the eye-catching centerpiece of museum dinosaur exhibits.
Tumblr media
Barosaurus at the Natural History Museum of Utah (NHMU)
Sauropods are part of the saurischian or "lizard-hipped" dinosaurs along with theropods. The phylogeny or evolutionary history of sauropods starts with a group called sauropodomorphs or "lizard-footed forms". This group includes sauropods and all ancestral forms often called "prosauropods".
Tumblr media
Panphagia, possibly the oldest sauropodomorph from Argentina 231.4 million years ago in the Late Triassic.
Distinguishing features known as synapomorphies are used to place animals (and plants for that matter) into various related groups. For sauropodomorphs, those synapomorphies are: large nares,
Tumblr media
Plateosaurus skull with external nares circled.
the distal part of the tibia is covered by an ascending process of the astralagus,
Tumblr media
Plateosaurus with distal tibia and astralagus circled.
short hindlimbs compared to torso length,
Tumblr media
Massospondylus
three or more sacral vertebrae,
Tumblr media
Mussauraurus with sacral verts circled.
thin, flat, spatulate teeth with serrated crowns
Tumblr media
Camarasaurus with large, spatulate teeth.
Tumblr media
Riojasaurus with 10 cervical verts circled.
25 presacral verts (all vertebrae before the hips)
Tumblr media
Anchisaurus with presacral verts circled.
and finally a large digit one on the manus (hand).
Tumblr media
Plateosaurus manus.
Sauropodomorphs appeared in the Late Triassic Period and as such, are some of the oldest dinosaurs in the fossil record. They started out relatively small but as we follow the phylogenetic tree we reach the clade sauropoda itself and see a drastic increase in size. Synapomorphies of sauropoda include four fused sacral verts and a straight femur.
Tumblr media
Diplodocus sacral verts.
Tumblr media
Sauropod femur at Dinosaur National Monument.
These features show a marked shift in the post cranial skeleton caused by massive weight. The hind feet were broad and most species had three claws.
Tumblr media
Hind foot of Rhoetosaurus.
The front feet were arranged in fully vertical columns with extremely reduced finger bones.
Tumblr media
Diplodocus manus (front foot).
Next comes the clade eusauropoda meaning "true lizard foot". Synapomorphies of this clade include incorporation of the first two dorsal vertebrae into the cervical column plus two additional cervical vertebrae along with retracted external nares.
Tumblr media
Eusauropod, Jobaria with large external nares shifting up the skull (retracting).
Mamenchisauridae is a family within eusauropoda. This family is found exclusively in Asia (and possibly Africa but that is still up for debate) and it possessed extraordinarily long necks, some making up over half the total body length and relatively short tails making them look a tad bit lopsided.
Tumblr media
Mamenchisaurus
Following eusauropoda comes neosauropoda or "new lizard footed". This clade is distinguished by a preanorbital fenestrae (a hole in front of the antorbital fenestrae which is a hole in front of the eye socket or orbit) on the ventral side of the skull, a lack of denticles on teeth,
Tumblr media
Ankylosaur teeth with denticles pointed out.
two or fewer carpals (hand bones), metacarpals bound to create a digitigrade posture (walk on toes)
Tumblr media
and a wedge-shaped astralagus (ankle bone).
Tumblr media
Neosauropoda is broken up into the superfamily diplocoidea and the clade macronaria. Diplocoidea is in turn broken up into three families: rebbachisauridae, dicraeosauridae, and diplodocidae. Rebbachisaurs appear to be the most primitive, lacking the bifurcated neural spines in the cervical verts of the rest of the superfamily.
Tumblr media
Some rebbachisaurs even have a dental battery like ceratopsians and hadrosaurs.
Tumblr media
Nigersaurus dental battery.
Dicraeosauridae, the sister group to diplodocidae, are characterized by their relatively small body size and short necks.
Tumblr media
Suuwassea, North America's only dicraeosaur found in Morrison Formation in Montana.
Diplodocidae is by far the most well known family thanks to the incredible amount of material in the Morrison Formation of the western U.S. Some of the most famous sauropods belong to this group such as Apatosaurus, Brontosaurus, Supersaurus, Barosaurus, Diplodocus, and Seismosaurus. Some of their distinguishing characters include dorsally facing external nares and 70-80 caudal vertebrae giving them whip-like tails.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Diplodocus with nares on top of skull.
Macronaria is another well-known clade that has three families: Camarasauridae, Brachiosauridae and Titanosauria. Some of the synapomorphies of macronaria include crests forms by large protruding nasal bones, robust, spatulate and broad-crowned teeth,
Tumblr media
elongate metacarpals,
Tumblr media
and forelimbs longer than hindlimbs.
Tumblr media
Camarasauridae currently only contains several species of Camarasaurus, the most common sauropod in the Jurassic Morrison Formation. There is some debate about it being in the African sister formation, the Tendaguru and possibly that Lourinhasaurus in the other sister formation in Portugal is also in this family.
Brachiosauridae is a distinct family that literally stands out from other sauropods. Their necks were built to be able to lift their heads up to browse treetops and their teeth could slice through tough plant matter.
Tumblr media
Giraffatitan skull.
Finally, there are the titanosaurs. An intriguing group, there has yet to be a complete titanosaur found. This clade also has the largest range in body size. Skulls are poorly known but some resemble brachiosaurs while other resemble diplodocids. They had an average length for necks and whip-like tails though much shorter than diplodocids. Unlike other sauropods who have pneumatized (full of holes) cervical vertebrae, titanosaur cervicals are solid. Their spinal column was also more flexible than other sauropods. One of the most characteristic traits is the ball and socket articulations of the procoelus caudal vertebrae. Some even have osteoderms.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ampelosaurus with spiked osteoderms.
And now you have a pretty good idea of how various saurpods are related and how we've put them together. Neat, huh?

I finished this earlier this month but I was waiting until Thanksgiving to post it.  For this year's Thanksgiving piece I decided to do the dinosaurs of Massachusetts.  This was relatively easy as there were only two of them from what I could find.  The one in the front is Podokesaurus Holyokensis, a light bodied predator and the Massachusetts' official state dinosaur.  The second is Anchisaurus, a relatively small sauropodomorph (an ancestor of sauropods).  Both existed in the early Jurassic period so they would have coexisted with each other as Pokodesaurus was more built for hunting small animals rather than larger prey. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! As always, comments and critiques are welcome. P.S. I used some of thee colors found on turkeys to color Podokesaurus.
