Something that really upsets me about palaeoartists who draw extinct mammals in particular is the rampant shrinkwrapping.
Compare a hippo skull and hippo head:
Or a pig:
And now look at how extinct mammals are depicted. Like entelodonts:
Or uintatheres:
It just……really doesn’t follow what we know about mammals, at all. I’d wager both entelodonts and uintatheres had a LOT of soft tissue on their heads completely obscuring the shape of their skulls, and so did a lot of other extinct mammals.
what im getting from this is that dinosaurs are chubby and soft pass it on
There aren’t any dinosaurs in this post, but yes
