Here's today's #Paleostream flocking sketches!!!

today we sketched Carcharodontosaurus, Austroraptor (mine is eating a juvenile Kawanectes), Dreadnoughtus, and Razanandrongobe (mine is eating an Andrianavoay)

Despite being the mighty top dog of Early Cretaceous North America, the continent’s only Carcharodontosaurid, and sharing the same habitat as the infamous Deinonychus, Acrocanthosaurus atokensis is so underrated compared to T.rex and deserves more love and recognition…

Quick drawing of Eocarcharia dinops

Down to the Waterline

Acrocanthosaurus leans in for a drink, scaring off a Deinonychus who was doing the same.

Guys in the sky are a flock of avialans, an Ornithocheirid, and some Tapejarids

I like to do abstract backgrounds because I suck at drawing

Now that I have Concavenator, I think my next set needs to include Ichthyovenator, their other half!!

Happy Dinosaur Day: Eocarcharia is a genus of carcharodontosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived in what is now North Africa during the Aptian and Albian stages of the early cretaceous period some 125 to 112 mya. The holotype specimen of eocarcharia consisting of a partial skull was uncovered in the year 2000 during an expedition to the Elrhaz formation led by University of Chicago paleontologist Paul Sereno. These remains where found alongside the remains of an abelisaurid named Kryptops. Yet in wouldn’t be until 2008 that the animal would be formally named and described by Dr. Sereno and Dr. Brusatte. Since then some additional post cranial remains have been recovered/ reassigned from other genuses. The type and only species is Eocarcharia dinops which roughly translates to dawn shark with fierce eyes, with the specific name being in reference to the fact that Eocarcharia’s brow is swollen into a massive band of bone, giving it a menacing glare. Reaching roughly 19 to 26ft (6-8m) in length and 2,200 to 4,400lbs (1,000 to 2,000kgs) in weight, Eocarcharia would have been one of the largest predators of its environment. Likely using its sharp blade like teeth to dispatch various prey in the form of the sauropods, ornithopods, crocodiliomorphs, and smaller theropods it shared its environment with.

“The Sultan”

Inspired by the recent discovery of Ulughbegsaurus (named after the 15th century sultan-scientist Ulugh Beg), a large carcharodontosaurian which lived in Uzbekistan 90 million years ago and overshadowed the tyrannosaurs it lived alongside, many of which were much smaller than their later cousin T. rex.

Contrary to what many news sites seem to want you to believe, no, it wasn’t bigger than T. rex itself...
