Metamynodon, Zdeněk Burian, 1969

Metamynodon’s day is spent in leisure. Wallowing, feeding, sighing. A breeze rattles the reeds and chills the spots where its hide is wet with mud, so it sinks deeper, hides from the wind in the bog, and lets the mud squish between its toes and clog its armpits and nether regions. It breaks wind, flips its tail, watches the water slosh over the mud, its reflection rolling on ripples more active than the beast itself. Life could no be better.
