Description That's right we don't just get not one, not two, but three prehistoric creatures from the Retronian period along with little birdies and we're going to go through each and every one of them

1. Ceratodicurus. Sp (Meaning: Horned Tail) is a unique genus of glyptodont it is said that this species is the last of its kind but they are still thriving in fact rumor has it that their descendants are still living on today but a lot smaller in fact the closest living descendants of these animals are armadillos so it's possible that these armadillos and their descendants might have lived alongside one another. Their fossils were first discovered in South America in the 1950s at first they thought they were the remains of an Ankylosaur but they were wrong but the most historic thing about this Glyptodont is that it had an extremely armored tail along with the unique mace like club at the end of its tail which is proven to be used for self-defense or possibly to fight over mates, judging by the molars and it's skull it is theorized that this animal might've been an omnivore feeding on Roots, tubers, certain grasses and grubs.
This animal also has a symbiotic relationship with tick eating birds that feed on the ticks that are embedded into its shell and the bird sitting on top of its shell in the picture are called The Violet Mocking Jay and they are still living with us today unfortunately the Ceratodicurus are now extinct but it's small descendants did.

Species name: Ceratodicurus. Sp

Name meaning: Horned tail

Family: Chlamyphoridae

Order: Cingulata

Class: Mammalia

Diet: omnivore

Height: 1.7 m

Weight: 2,370 kg

Length: 13 ft long

Danger rate: 50% (if provoked)

Time Period: Retronian BC

Carniaviopteryx (Meaning: ) is a species descendant of Dino birds that have dated back since the late Cretaceous Period they somewhat resemble archeopteryxes with black feathers pale skin and red or orange feathers on its head sort of resembling a vulture despite their teeth they're mostly carnivores but sometimes they feed on insects and like vultures they even gathering groups and linger around dead carcasses feeding on them until there's nothing left.
They're about the size of an Andean Condor and some say they're descendants are still flying around alongside modern birds.

Species name: Carniaviopteryx

Name meaning:

Family: Archaeopterygidae

Order: Saurischia

Class: Aves

Diet: Carnivore

Height: 1.7 m

Wingspan: 3 meters

Weight: 7.7 – 15 kg

Length: 100 – 130 cm

Danger rate: 50%

Time Period: Retronian BC

Chlamydosaurus. Sp (Meaning: Cloaked Lizard) is actually believer or not a ancestor of the modern frilled lizard, the fossil even shows that it had strong leg muscles meaning that it might have mostly been bipedal nobody knows exactly what the coloration of the frill is or its skin but all we know it's a pretty unique find for paleontology. Judging by its size the animal was slightly bigger than an average filled lizard in fact it might have not been much of a threat to primitive humans rather than might have been a threat to small mammals, lizards, birds, and even insects. This creature inhabited the deserts of Australia millions of years ago and it's descendant the frilled lizard is still living to this day.

Species name: Chlamydosaurus. Sp

Name meaning: Cloaked Lizard

Family: Agamidae

Order: Squamata

Class: Reptilia

Diet: Carnivore

Height: 6 to 8 ft talL

Weight: 9.1 pounds

Length: 40 inches

Danger rate: 50% (to their chosen prey)

Time Period: Retronian BC

I hope you guys enjoyed these pictures cuz they were a lot of fun to make, the Ceratodicurus was based on the glyptodons from ice age (may blue sky studios rest in peace 😖) and the little birds on top of its shell were just made out of random, the Carniaviopteryx was based on the dino birds from the movie "Boonie Bears: blast into the past" and finally the Chlamydosaurus was just put in out of random also, I hope you guys enjoy these pictures cuz that's the end of the retrosaurs line or maybe there might be more in the future I don't know yet but for now I'm going to make different pictures in the near future after all this series was really fun to make because since a lot of people have been making old-timey vintage dinosaurs and other animals I wanted to do the same thing too and maybe you guys can do the same thing or who knows if you guys have a chance maybe you can make modern versions of my dinosaurs leave a note in the comments and take care 😘
