Finally got around to reconstruct the recently described Wulong bohaiensis, a Microraptorian Dromaeosaurid from Early Cretaceous China. Here I reconstructed a speculative adult, the holotype (and only specimen) of this taxon is a juvenile/subadult

I did this a while back but had not shared it yet. Medium and large terrestrial mammals (10 kg or more) of northern South America 20-10,500 years ago! So much megafauna lost so recently! Species in red went extinct.

This is an amazing research! Siphonops annulatus (and probably other caecilians) feed their hatchlings “milk” for two months! That’s amazing!
A new study reveals that an egg-laying species of worm-like amphibian nourishes its young with a lipid-rich, milk-like substance.
The findings report previously unobserved behavior and offer new insight into the species’ parental care and communication.
