some good visuals, like 2D-animated portions in the style of chalk drawings, and a few more obscure species picks, like Concavenator (hey, it is spanish).
I give it 7/10: not the most memorable out there, but worth your time.

Crude overheaded sketch of Nanotyrannus being scavenged by two raptors, an Infernodrakon, an Asprosaurus on the cadaver, and a broad snouted crocodilian.

Two Pteranodon, one male, the othe intersect stare at each other. Three females are behind them on a sunset beach.
TEXT:
Crests of Love

Nothing in nature is ever binary, as seen with this intersex Pteranodon, with a male's preportions but a female's colours. They tower over the females, but are clearly not so.
But this is of no concern to a male, who will court them all the same.

Silhoetted mosasaurs snap at each other in a dark sea.

Text reads:
Phosphorosaurus
Phosphate lizard
The depths of the Pacific's shelf bears many sea monsters, like these two feuding mosasaurs, who small size betrays a wicked temper. Their large eyes, big to pick up any light when they dive down, lock onto each other, whil their long necks can help their jaws wrench flesh off. Hopefully things will dissipate peacefully before they draw blood - and risk attracting a bigger predator.

Fins of Helicoprion in the surface.

Text reads

These seas in the Permian will one day become Idaho.

What Can you see?

Could it be a shark? They hace already evolved by this time.

If you have or have had Tri-Council funding you, too, may be concerned about this Parliamentary Committee request for confidential data.

Also, these clowns asked for 5 years of data on applications from everyone from MA students to Canada Research Chairs in... an excel spreadsheet. 15 days notice.

If it wasn't for museum donors, the Dueling Dinosaurs would be rotting away in a private collection or worse, be destroyed.

Hefty White-tialed Deer buck lays in an urban yard, against a chainlink fence, with a metal lawn chair in the foreground. He is a sturdy boy, with a thick neck, a healthy winter pelt, and eight antler points across his entire rack of antlers. He is unbothered as he watches me in the yard with my dog.

White-tailed Deer often have serious urban overpopulation issues because we removed many of their natural predators (ultimately increasing human-wildlife conflict and hurting deer too).

But also, it's so cool that I can walk outside and see these magnificent animals just resting in the yard
