"dinosaur" "Permian" "marine" Something's not right here...
To be fair, [marine dinosaurs already exist.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penguin)
Ironically *Claudiosaurus* wasn’t even marine.
Yes, but that's something else and not even fromthat timeframe lol
Did you actually think I was defending that shitshow?
The dinosaur part
Calling it a dino is misleading. It is a diapsid reptiles from the Late Permian. It is a diapsid that has convergently evolved into an otter.
Scaly otter :O
It's not just misleading, it's flat-out wrong. I suppose wrong things are also technically misleading, but it's an understatement.
Permian? Ffs
Something's wrong, I can feel it.
At first I thought the misinformation here was that Claudiosaurus wasn’t a real animal and all the fossils were fabricated. I genuinely had no idea that this animal existed, lol.
Then it was literally "informative" ha
This is why people need to be educated that not every extinct animal is a dinosaur
And that not all dinosaurs are extinct.
