I ask myself this question a lot...
Actual recent animals are all kinda boring...but maybe that's just because we're used to them

They are mostly bipedal but they can also use their wrists for support on the ground

Don't you think leptictids (small , elephant shrew like lepitctidium relatives)  and pseudorhynchocyonids (the family to which leptictidium belonged) resemble elephant shrews?

Yep, they’re some sort of flying elephant-shrew-like gluttons 

These were initially planned to be trunked dragons but I then went with a more „realistic“ look

wait tarsier is not the animal I was thinking of XD i have my english translations mixed up, i ofcourse meant elephant shrews, their czech names are deceptibly similar as they are both derived from their elongated tarsi... XD

They’d certainly be handy to solve that problem… they’d probably eat your pets though
