Meet #Dilophosaurus! One of the most recognisable dinosaurs of the Early Jurassic, Dilophosaurus lived in what is now North America around 193 million years ago. Reaching approximately 7 metres in length, it was a relatively large, lightly built theropod, with long hind limbs, powerful jaws and two striking, curved crests on top of its skull. Its name means “two-crested lizard”, referring to these distinctive paired crests, which are among its most remarkable features. Despite its fearsome appearance, Dilophosaurus was quite different from the fictional creature portrayed in Jurassic Park. It had no retractable neck frill or venom-spitting abilities! Instead, it was a fascinating predator adapted to life in the Jurassic landscapes of ancient North America. If you enjoy seeing prehistoric animals brought to life through detailed, realistic illustrations like this, you’ll love my book, Snapshots of Prehistory! It features over 100 Cretaceous animals, each brought to life through carefully researched artwork and fascinating insights into their appearance, characteristics and the environments they inhabited. I’m also working towards an exciting new project! A documentary exploring the incredible wildlife of Late Cretaceous North America. I’m planning to launch a Kickstarter campaign to bring this vision to life, combining scientific research, realistic reconstructions and immersive visuals. More details coming soon, so stay tuned! I’ve been having a lot of fun creating these videos in this new format, and I’m grateful for all the support and positive feedback so far. It’s wonderful to see so many of you enjoying not only the visuals but also the educational content behind them. My aim is to keep producing videos that go beyond simply showing what these animals might have looked like, exploring their biology, unique adaptations and the prehistoric worlds they called home. Thank you all for being part of this journey! There’s so much more prehistoric wildlife to explore. And now, I’d love to hear from you: which prehistoric animal should I bring to life in the next video? Let me know in the comments!

Meet #Carnotaurus! A powerful predator that lived in what is now Argentina around 70 million years ago. Carnotaurus was an abelisaurid theropod dinosaur, instantly recognizable by the two distinctive horns above its eyes and its remarkably short, deep skull. With its powerful jaws, sharp teeth and unusual build, it was one of the most fascinating predators of the Late Cretaceous. Carnotaurus is just one of over 100 Cretaceous animals featured in my new book, Snapshots of Prehistory. I'm also planning a Kickstarter campaign to explore the fascinating wildlife of Late Cretaceous North America, bringing these prehistoric creatures to life in immersive, stunning detail. This is the second video I've made in this new format, and I really appreciate all the positive feedback and enthusiasm you shared on my last post. Thank you so much! It's incredibly encouraging to see how many of you are interested in this kind of content. I think it has a lot of potential to be both interesting and informative. My goal is to create more educational videos for Instagram and YouTube that go beyond the visuals, exploring the animals themselves, their characteristics and the world they lived in. Now I'd love to hear from you, which prehistoric animal would you like to see in the next video? Let me know in the comments!
