The Emperor Cinereous vulture (Aegypius monachus) The largest of the old world vultures, this magnificent species has a range throughout much of Eurasia. Cinereous vultures like many species suffered a decline over the 20th century due to poisoning and reduced availability of carcasses to feed on

Rüppells Vulture The Star This critically endangered species holds the world record for highest flying bird, at an impressive 11,300 m (37,000 ft)!

A new world vulture for the 2nd card, despite the visual similarities vultures of the Americas are not closely related to the vultures of Africa and Eurasia. This is an example of convergent evolution, where two unrelated groups of animal independently take on similar strategies to occupy a niche.

The Chariot Cape vulture (Gyps coprotheres) Vultures are the most endangered group of birds, not only is suitable habitat being reduced through agriculture and urbanization, but climate change, persecution, and poisoning have lead to a steady decline of several species.

Hey ho it's #portfolioday again! I'm Tam, a Canadian freelance artist, always looking for work. I specialize in creature and character artwork in both digital and traditional mediums. No AI 🚫 Here's a bit of my art! And my portfolio site 💚🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🇨🇦 tamvmat.myportfolio.com/work

Haven't drawn in a while, and haven't posted here in a while too! Allosaurus art

Greetings little one 🤓🥹

Quote with your blue art! 💙

Wanted to draw something dramatic, Velociraptors seemed the most appropriate subject

Evolutionary Arms Race

Been a while, here's some Torvosaurus art!

This thread is close to my stance: More automation will always happen. What matters is whether it happens over generations, replacing tedious/dangerous jobs, or if it happens overnight, killing jobs people are still actively training for so billionaires can save money. Tyler is more coherent, tho.

Why is my book taking so long to finish? Well, one of many reasons are Aetosaurs! They are very complicated to reconstruct AND my book has a lot of them! 😅 But Aetosaurs are awesome! Aetosaurs are pseudosuchians, and thus related to modern crocodilians #paleoart #aetosaurs #art

When I draw something facing one direction... & The moment I mirror it. 🙃🤪

Cyprinids are my least favorite kinds of fish to draw, their scales are tedious and can cause carpal tunnel

Pigeons, they're neat!

Not finished yet, but a preview for next week's auction. My phone camera is not great, but it's especially bad for artworks with tonal subtleties (there is less betrayal with the silhouette pieces). #Junicorn

Duck, duck, moose. Edmontosaurus Ink and gouache on Fabriano Medioevalis, 132 × 85 mm. I think I botched the birds somewhat. 🙈 It's a hot day and both I and the ink (because it dries out on the brush too soon) were fighting. This piece will be available at auction next week.

Absolutely fascinating stuff!!!!

Stunning 😍

Hey @squamatespod.bsky.social -- I'm catching up and currently listening to the section of ep 32 on endothermy. It's little known that a bunch of skinks are true automatic endotherms. Also, the thing about leatherback turtles being facultative endotherms or gigantotherms is probably wrong -- cont

This is lovely!

As we head toward the UK summertime, you can guarantee what our wretched tabloid press will say about #GULLS. On that note, some new comments just appeared at this classic #TetZoo article from 2019... tetzoo.com/blog/2019/7/...

#ArtBoost today is for DJ Washington (I can't find him on BSky), palaeoartist and conservation biology graduate based in the US, producing striking, bold, sometimes stylized art of ancient animals. It sure would be incredible if a book called MESOZOIC ART II included a section of his art, right?

How exactly are you going to make a viable population out of a handful of GMO abominations without inbreeding the shit out of them? Not to mention that it doesn’t solve any of the problems that killed them all to begin with.

I remember the first time I saw Martyn's art and thought "that's a beautiful photograph". Then I scrolled and saw the progress pics, absolutely spectacular work!

I'm assuming the parent has brought a twig for enrichment purposes. 🤡

"Oh, my God" "What is it?" "It's a birdcage" "For what?" My 3D anatomical study of a large male Pteranodon longiceps. The skeleton is a generalised composite as per usual with my models, but is scaled to UNSM 50130 (a very large and almost complete wing)
