NOTE: I thought about doing a Triassic episode in the Chinle for this season of Past Meets Present, but I ultimately decided to push it back to the next season.

Postosuchus (HENDRIX) | ZT2 Download Library Wiki | Fandom Past Meets Present (Pt4 is Up) - The ZT2 Round Table If you had to ask me where I'd rank the models themselves, different story completely.ДЄnyways, I think I did a decent job recreating this awesome predator from the Triassic, hope to do more soon.

I didn't really change the skin since, well, I'd honestly rank it in the top-5 of all WWD skin designs which are:ДЄgain, skin designs.

At first, I tried to modify the hands in Blender, but then I just played around with stuff in the rendering software I used, and boomВ got a good Postosuchus. ^^^ This guy does fantasticrevisions of Walking With. Walking with Dinosaurs: Postosuchus by TrefRex on DeviantArt I mainly took points from TrefRex 's Postosuchus profile: I added lips, gave it the more accurate skull, made it a shorter, more stout torso, and of course,В modified the limbs. I mainly fleshed in the skull some more, both on the mesh and on the skin. Haven't done a Triassic animal profile/design so did one of my favorite animals from WWD. In their place, their distant cousins, the dinosaurs would supersede them and become one of the most iconic dynasties that ever walked the planet. Both groups of Archosaurs would survive, but Postosuchus and its kin would die out. Like its extant relatives, the crocodilians, it likely had powerful jaw muscles designed to clamp down on the prey.ДЄt the end of the Triassic, another extinction event would occur that would mark the end of many odd creatures. Filled with large serrated teeth up to 2.5 inches long, designed to shear through the flesh and muscle of its prey. For Postosuchus specifically, it hunted the largeВ DicynodontsВ like Placerias and other archosaurs who roamed the vast tropical environment of what is now the deserts of North America.ДЄs mentioned prior, the skull was robust and massive compared to other terrestrial carnivores. Postosuchus and other PseudosuchiansВ filled the roles of apex predators.

However, none of them could match its robust skull and mouth full of serrated teeth. Even the largest theropods at the time, Gojirasaurus, were only starting to approach Postosuchus in terms of mass. Dinosaurs, while they were starting to become more and more prevalent at this time (~216,000,000 years ago), and while they had a foothold on the supercontinent, they did not have a firm grip on the planet yet. Furthermore, the structure of the pelvis, vertebra, and robust hindlimbs were more in line with theropod dinosaurs.ДЄnd given the build and size of this predator, it's likely it filled a similar niche to the large theropodsВ that would evolve during the Jurassic. The reason given for this view is that the size of the forelimbs was reduced in size. This was shown in the paleo-documentaryВ Walking With Dinosaurs, where it was shown to be exclusively an obligate quadruped.В However, a study from 2013 re-examined many skeletons and found that it was more likely to be an obligate biped. A study from 1995 found the body was front-heavy, and thus it had to have its forelimbs planted on the ground to support its bulk and walk around. Among the most iconic was Postosuchus from North America.ДЇor a long time, it was thought it was a quadruped. However, during the Triassic, many PseudosuchiansВ superficially resembled dinosaurs. Two groups would emerge, the Avemetatarsalians,В which would give rise to dinosaurs, pterosaurs, birds,В and Pseudosuchians, leadingВ to crocodilians and their cousins. The Great Dying that marked the end of the Permian wiped out over 80% of all life on earth, and out of the ashes of that extinction would arise the most successful of all vertebrates, the Archosaurs.

This period was right after one of the most catastrophic extinction events the planet had ever witnessed. The Triassic was among the oddest periods in the history of life on earth.
