A herd of Falcarius with a giant polacanthine in the middle. Inspired by the bonebed that preserves these two as well as a gif showing an elephant seal in a penguin colony.

And yes, all noises are just me. Unaltered.

Had fun thinking about Therizinosaurus’ mating dance as a mixture between painted turtles and birds-of-paradise.

Happy Halloween 🎃.

Trick or treat.

Falcarius!

[mineralsrocksandfossiltalks]

Fossil Friday!

This is Falcarius.

He is an early therizinosaur from the Cedar Mountain Formation in the Yellow Cat Member. He is about 13ft long and is the basal most therizinosaur showing a transition from traditional theropod body plan to the therizinosaur one.

Look how tiny he ia beside cousin Nothronychus!

Many different ontogenetic stages have been found (growth stages) with the smallest being just over 3ft.

Shelter from the storm I just wanted to doodle my gf's favourite animal and mine together and it got out of hand. But there we are, a regular ass cat and a giant turkey from 66 million years ago.

Falcarius is considered the most basal therizinosaurian genus, and considered the transitional dinosaur between the standard theropod bodyplan and the unusual appearance of therizinosaurids. Unlike more advanced therizinosaurs, Falcarius had a propubic pelvis, three-toed feet, and a smaller first toe.

[Image descriptions: Two digital art pieces.

Image 1: Three ducks standing near a barn, looking up at a blue comet streaking across the sky. There is a small pool in the foreground and a forest in the background.

Image 2: An image with a similar composition, but the ducks are replaced with dinosaurs (a Therizinosaurus, a Microraptor, two Triceratops, and a Tyrannosaurus) and the barn with a tall cliff. The comet is also red instead of blue.
