I wonder why yahoo never post me messages that are replies to my messages? Anyhow, posting this through the website now. David ... I really didn't know what to...
Here's a sketch I forgot to post yesterday. This one will take some more explaining. Since we are going to fluff up the rhynchoraptors and Australia has lost ...
... I see no reason why we shouldn't make them flexible, as other pterosaurs had more flexible necks (IIRC, no one has come up with even a plausible hypothesis...
... I like. You wanted owlbears in spec way back when anyway, correct? Why not just call it the yowie though? It's probably the second most well known...
... I think keeping the yowie a marsuipial is still a good idea, the niches could be partitioned like how some places have black AND brown bears. Aulbarra is...
Aw geeze, you guys... I was expecting to find messages pooh-poohing my poor attempt at an April fool's prank, not discussing the merits of the silly creature. ...
I decided to follow someone's (I can't remember if it was Karl or Raymond) to draw skeletical features for now. Here's some things I've done as experiments...
The Spec website http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/~a0000265/Spec/index.html probably wasn't accessible from April 1st till now. I just fixed that. It will work...

... Are they still paraphyletic though? Or will they now form a single linage that is distinct from marine mosasaurs?...
... Given David had suggested bearlike rhynchoraptors before, it didn't seem that outlandish. ... You seemed to have fixed the center of gravity dilemma - it...
... That's highly strange. Because it suggests pronation independently developed three times in ornithischians, and of course once in Sauropodomorphs. If it...
I read last night, much to my shock, the Platypus does not have a stomach. It cannot be distinguished from its esophagus, and it produces no digestive...
... But that all depends on what the spec platypi eat. The Frogshrew eats the same kind of thing as a normal platypus, so no worries there. Is eating...
... That truly shocked me as well. But then again, HE has bizarre things like eels with throat jaws. Probably its a good idea to reconsider about the existence...
1.May I attempt an essay on volaticotheres? 2.Not really Spec based, but what is the current consensus on leptictid phylogeny? I currently saw mostly...
And again, I'm afraid of Raymond's reaction. ... Convergent evolution is quite common among mammals of HE's and Spec's timelines. Spec's spelks, for example,...
