Tired of
Tyrannosaurus? Sick of
Smilodon? Craving weird, bizarre, and/or obscure prehistoric organisms?
We've got the solution for you!
www.stfd.net/. No, this time seriously!
Machaeroides and
avancna have founded a new deviantART Club that caters to obscure and arcane prehistoric animals. You won't find "popular" critters such as
Tyrannosaurus,
Triceratops,
Pterodactylus,
Stegosaurus,
Velociraptor,
Spinosaurus,
Pteranodon,
Deinonychus,
Elasmosaurus, or
Dimetrodon here, as we regard such subjects as passé, bordering on trite (our apologies to those who hold these particular genera in high regard).
We intend to make an effort to focus on lesser known creatures to the public, such as
Stahleckeria potens,
Keratocephalus moloch,
Shokawa ikoi,
Opabinia regalis,
Pseudopalatus andersoni, or
Astrapotherium magnus, for example. The organisms can be either plant or animal.
Anyone interested is free to join, and please inquire about available club positions!
