This animal is one of the few that survived the Permian-Triassic mass extinction, the most devastating in Earth's history, making it a key example of evolutionary resilience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLystrosaurus curvatus had a compact and robust body, with a length ranging from 1 to 1.5 meters. Its build was adapted to a terrestrial lifestyle, with short, strong limbs that probably allowed it to dig or move through difficult terrain. Its head was large in proportion to the body and it had a short, broad snout, with jaws that housed a pair of large, forward-curving canine teeth, characteristics that give it its specific name, curvatus. In addition, the rest of its teeth were adapted to cutting vegetation, indicating a diet based on tough, fibrous plants.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the most distinctive features of Lystrosaurus curvatus was its skull, which featured a strong and compact structure, suggesting that it might have used its head and tusks for digging or perhaps to extract roots and tubers from the ground. Its horny, turtle-like beak was ideal for uprooting low vegetation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLystrosaurus curvatus had a pot-bellied trunk, indicating a voluminous digestive system, necessary for processing large amounts of plant material. Its well-developed ribs protected internal organs and contributed to its physical strength. Although it was a relatively slow animal, its physiology was well adapted to an arid and harsh environment characteristic of the early Triassic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis animal is especially notable for its wide geographic distribution, with fossils found in what are now Africa, India and Antarctica, suggesting that it was highly adaptable and able to survive in a variety of climates and conditions. Its evolutionary success is attributed to its ability to live in dry environments and its resistance to extreme environmental changes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLystrosaurus curvatus represents a fascinating example of an organism that not only survived one of the worst mass extinctions, but thrived in the aftermath, dominating terrestrial ecosystems for several million years before the first dinosaurs began to emerge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximate measurements of Lystrosaurus:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1:10 scale Complete\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength 54 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight 62 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth 40 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnout-tail length 102 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Dino and Dog","offers":[{"title":"1:20 \/ Unprimed","offer_id":44141594116364,"sku":"DC-0018-120-SINI","price":34.77,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1:20 \/ Primed","offer_id":44307795640588,"sku":"DC-0018-120-IMPRI","price":40.69,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1:20 \/ Hand painted","offer_id":44586158620940,"sku":"DC-0018-120-PINTA","price":123.22,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/1106\/7660\/files\/lystrosaurus-03.jpg?v=1685899063"},{"product_id":"ammonites","title":"Ammonites","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\" jscontroller=\"Gn4SMb\" jsname=\"txFAF\" jsaction=\"agoMJf:PFBcW;MZfLnc:P7O7bd;nt4Alf:pvnm0e,pfE8Hb,PFBcW;B01qod:dJXsye;H1e5u:iXtTIf;lYIUJf:hij5Wb;bmeZHc:iURhpf;Oxj3Xe:qAKMYb,yaf12d\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ryNqvb\" jsname=\"W297wb\" jsaction=\"click:E6Tfl,GFf3ac,tMZCfe; contextmenu:Nqw7Te,QP7LD; mouseout:Nqw7Te; mouseover:E6Tfl,c2aHje\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmmonites\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eAmmonite sp\u003c\/em\u003e), extinct marine cephalopod molluscs that appeared in the middle of the Paleozoic Era (about 400 Ma ago) in the Lower Devonian and lasted until the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event, inhabited the oceans for more than 300 million years\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\" jscontroller=\"Gn4SMb\" jsname=\"txFAF\" jsaction=\"agoMJf:PFBcW;MZfLnc:P7O7bd;nt4Alf:pvnm0e,pfE8Hb,PFBcW;B01qod:dJXsye;H1e5u:iXtTIf;lYIUJf:hij5Wb;bmeZHc:iURhpf;Oxj3Xe:qAKMYb,yaf12d\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ryNqvb\" jsname=\"W297wb\" jsaction=\"click:E6Tfl,GFf3ac,tMZCfe; contextmenu:Nqw7Te,QP7LD; mouseout:Nqw7Te; mouseover:E6Tfl,c2aHje\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"jCAhz\" jscontroller=\"Gn4SMb\" jsname=\"txFAF\" jsaction=\"agoMJf:PFBcW;MZfLnc:P7O7bd;nt4Alf:pvnm0e,pfE8Hb,PFBcW;B01qod:dJXsye;H1e5u:iXtTIf;lYIUJf:hij5Wb;bmeZHc:iURhpf;Oxj3Xe:qAKMYb,yaf12d\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ryNqvb\" jsname=\"W297wb\" jsaction=\"click:E6Tfl,GFf3ac,tMZCfe; contextmenu:Nqw7Te,QP7LD; mouseout:Nqw7Te; mouseover:E6Tfl,c2aHje\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\" jscontroller=\"Gn4SMb\" jsname=\"txFAF\" jsaction=\"agoMJf:PFBcW;MZfLnc:P7O7bd;nt4Alf:pvnm0e,pfE8Hb,PFBcW;B01qod:dJXsye;H1e5u:iXtTIf;lYIUJf:hij5Wb;bmeZHc:iURhpf;Oxj3Xe:qAKMYb,yaf12d\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ryNqvb\" jsname=\"W297wb\" jsaction=\"click:E6Tfl,GFf3ac,tMZCfe; contextmenu:Nqw7Te,QP7LD; mouseout:Nqw7Te; mouseover:E6Tfl,c2aHje\"\u003eThey were characterized by their spiral shells and internal chambers, which allowed them to adjust their buoyancy and control their position in the water.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\" jscontroller=\"Gn4SMb\" jsname=\"txFAF\" jsaction=\"agoMJf:PFBcW;MZfLnc:P7O7bd;nt4Alf:pvnm0e,pfE8Hb,PFBcW;B01qod:dJXsye;H1e5u:iXtTIf;lYIUJf:hij5Wb;bmeZHc:iURhpf;Oxj3Xe:qAKMYb,yaf12d\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ryNqvb\" jsname=\"W297wb\" jsaction=\"click:E6Tfl,GFf3ac,tMZCfe; contextmenu:Nqw7Te,QP7LD; mouseout:Nqw7Te; mouseover:E6Tfl,c2aHje\"\u003eThe shell was composed mainly of aragonite, a type of calcium carbonate, and could have different patterns and ornamentation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\" jscontroller=\"Gn4SMb\" jsname=\"txFAF\" jsaction=\"agoMJf:PFBcW;MZfLnc:P7O7bd;nt4Alf:pvnm0e,pfE8Hb,PFBcW;B01qod:dJXsye;H1e5u:iXtTIf;lYIUJf:hij5Wb;bmeZHc:iURhpf;Oxj3Xe:qAKMYb,yaf12d\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ryNqvb\" jsname=\"W297wb\" jsaction=\"click:E6Tfl,GFf3ac,tMZCfe; contextmenu:Nqw7Te,QP7LD; mouseout:Nqw7Te; mouseover:E6Tfl,c2aHje\"\u003eSaid spiral chamber also served to enclose the soft parts of the body and they had a horny beak with which they caught their prey.

Although it is often confused with dinosaurs due to its appearance, it actually belongs to a more primitive group of reptiles related to mammals.

This sail was made up of bony extensions that protruded from the vertebrae, covered by skin and possibly blood vessels. Although the exact function of this dorsal sail has been debated, the most widely accepted hypothesis is that it was used for thermoregulation, helping Edaphosaurus absorb or dissipate heat efficiently, which would have allowed it to better adapt to temperature changes in its environment. Another possible function of the sail was display, either to attract mates or to intimidate potential competitors or predators.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEdaphosaurus could reach considerable sizes, with a length of between 3 and 3.5 metres. Its body was robust and massive, with relatively short legs indicating that it was not a fast animal, but it probably did not need speed due to its herbivorous diet. It fed on a variety of plants, including early gymnosperms, ferns and other understory plants. Its teeth were specialised for processing tough, fibrous plant material; the teeth in its jaw were flattened and arranged in a lateral row, allowing it to crush plants before ingesting them. In addition, its upper jaw contained an additional palatal tooth structure, giving it greater capacity to process its food.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAs for its lifestyle, Edaphosaurus probably lived in wet, swampy environments, with densely vegetated areas. Paleontological studies suggest that this reptile was gregarious and possibly lived in groups, which could have provided it protection from predators of the time, such as Dimetrodon, another synapsid that shared its habitat but was carnivorous.
