Thrinaxodon Twins

These two Thrinaxodon, snuggled close together in a form of hibernation, were still young at the time of their unfortunate death. They were littermates - and still very likely being looked after by one or both parents when their tunnel collapsed.

a field wolf spider (Hogna lenta) squeezing down her burrow to consume her freshly-wrangled roach dinner in peace

unlike some other wolf spiders that construct burrows, H. lenta seems to be strictly nocturnal and their burrow entrances are well hidden and practically impossible to find. I imagine this helps them avoid the Anoplius spider wasps that are often seen hunting for them during the day.
