Something Real
MemberTyrannosaurus RexNov-06-2014 5:03 PMHello there.
I was recently browsing a few topics that came across my purview and, amongst them, I located a little snippet that immediately made me think of you guys. I don't know if this has already been brought forward, but I wanted to share it, nevertheless. Speculations seem to suggest that some members of the ichthyosaur family might have dwelled within the water and upon the land! I do hope you enjoy this! :)

MemberCompsognathusNov-06-2014 6:46 PMThis is interesting, I know for a while it has been a mystery of what the terrestrial ancesters of Ichthyosaurs looked like, though this is something big. Im very surprised that it had a short snout unlike other Ichythosaurs. Although the article said that this might mean it was suction-feeder, I personally think it's an evolutionary leftover from the ichthyosaur ancestor that was fully terrestrial.
There is no such thing as a pure predator. A meat-eater is eit
