dwarf animals and a five horned deer made me lol

The Triassic was a period of experimentation for animals. Tons of new things were developed. Non-insects learned to fly (or glide to be more honest)
, the first mammal like creature was born. Everything was just a little weird after the previous extinction caused by acidity in the water

1 kg of the gloomy stuff could filter up 22,000 gallons of water a day which is more than the average shower faucet can output in the same period. When approaching other sponges the two colonies would conjoin formula internal rivers if nutrients to keep everyone fed. They would span over trenches and around outcroppings. Said to be the largest ever organism taking up the majority of the “Atlantic” sea floor

Jurassic period gets a lot of attention for its dinosaurs but possibly just as interesting is the life that supports the gigantic lizzards. In oceans where a particular interest to the author. There’s a new reef builder in town. Well perhaps an older one. The glass sponge is a pretty weird boy. The cells can function individually however they can also conjoin into a single mass as a colony.
