Fossilis Willis Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I'm not sure what's more impressive, the ammonite, or your vision. Good eye! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilDAWG Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I was hoping you would enter that in the FOTM! One thing though, could you specify which track you are calling Nanopus? Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilDAWG Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Lucky dog! Anyway I think it's good to be clear about that when people are judging it for the contest. Don 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdp Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Nice trackways. I'll just note that the trackmaker of Nanopus is not fully understood, but was definitely not a salamander, as salamanders had not evolved yet by the Carboniferous. Might be a small temnospondyl, though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
