2016 seems to be an illustration of Dimetrodon instead. But yeah, spinosaurus has many looks it’s pretty funny and exciting every time a new paper’s out lol

Pretty sure that Dimetrodon has a mustache so it must have been a very silly time in paleontology.

Not a paleontologist, but these renditions seem shockingly consistent for a dinosaur. T-Rex for example went from full upright to balanced to covered in feathers in half this timeframe. And let’s not even talk about poor iguanodon…

Did they fire the scientist in 2015 and ask an intern to make the model for 2016?
