A bad day for Hippopotamus gorgopsby ~HodariNundu

Traditional Art / Drawings / Animals

¡Hippopotamus gorgops sorprendido por un Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni!
Este cocodrilo medía hasta 8.2 metros, siendo el cocodrilo auténtico más grande conocido (en palabras de la prensa, lo suficientemente grande para estelarizar Lake Placid). Vivió en Kenya en el Plio-Pleistoceno y coexistió con nuestros ancestros homininos, pero en este caso quise darle una presa más épica (H. gorgops medía mas de dos metros de alto, 4.3 de largo y probablemente pesaba hasta cinco toneladas).
Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni estaba cercanamente emparentado con C. anthropophagus.

Hippopotamus gorgops attacked by a Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni!
This croc was up to 8.2 meters long, being the largest true crocodile known; to quote the press, it was big enough to star in Lake Placid.
It lived in Kenya during the Pliocene-Pleistocene and coexisted with our hominin ancestors, but I wanted to give it more epic game. (H. gorgops was over 2 meters tall, 4.3 meters long and probably weighed up to 5 tons).
Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni was closely related to C. anthropophagus.
