![14th Doodle Dump of December
Feat:
Emiko and Erma in their Splatoon Grandfest Cosplays (that being Shiver and Big Man that is)
DinoGuy's Sona (P.S: Congrats on reaching 80k subs on Youtube! Love your dino videos!)
A stylized mudskipper from Amphibia as well as Bog, since he's very underrated from Amphibia
SarukaiWolf's Sarusona (with a Luma from Mario as well as Rosalina making a cameo on his shirt cuz he loves Rosalina.)
[DISCLAIMER: HIS ART IS NOT MEANT FOR KIDS. I HOPE Y'ALL UNDERSTAND THAT]
And Carla and Mr. Cretoxyrhina from Dinosaur Train (My first fanart for that PBS Kids series because I love sharks and Dinosaur Train was my favorite show growing up)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:aak5mvjoe75z4bfj4xoiuh5a/bafkreihuw6b4ssfbpygo6cqeib7e27nh7vdffklyc2odted6y7wj2z4rpy@jpeg)

It's marine reptile Wednesday!
Here's an acrylic painting from 2021, depicting a #Cretoxyrhina (top left), Squalicorax (#sharks, bottom right), & two #Tylosaurus (juvenile left, adult right). This was a private commission.

Also made evident by the fact that Cretoxyrhina, a shark with smooth-edged teeth, fed on marine tetrapods (e.g. mosasaurs).

So I saw Darkedges Video on her TLC ideas and I completely agree with her ideas but I wanna add to that and say what I think could be a good replacement for the Megalodons current role
Cretoxyrhina I think is arguably the second most famous Prehistoric Shark and I think its close enough to the

Happy #FossilFriday from the BEST fossil shark specimen on display anywhere (it’s at KU)
This Cretoxyrhina mantelli skeleton has the bones of a big Xiphactinus audax mixed in with it, showing the shark died shortly after ingesting the absolute worst fish in the late Cretaceous seaway. 🧪🦈

While another example, cretoxyrhina, seems to have a smooth jaw contour and likely small orbital process’
This thing likely was jawslinging like a suggested analog, isurus, aka mako
Which makes sense as creoxyrhina is currently a Lamniforme

ok so i just found out there's evidence of cretoxyrhina (a very large mackerel shark) feeding on pteranodon (unclear if predation or scavenging) and y'all i just love palaeontology pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Cute shiny Cretoxyrhina tooth to start the day this fine Sharky Sunday.

The fact that they’re lammiformes close to sharks like Cretoxyrhina and Otodus still blows my mind. Amazing how many times active predators can switch to filter feeders over time.

Cretoxyrhina.
Better known as the Ginsu Shark.
The great white shark of the Cretaceous oceans, these large mackerel sharks were equipped with razor sharp teeth reminiscent of ginsu knives.

I love megalodon, but I absolutely love Cretoxyrhina so damn much. It’s genuinely such a cool shark

Giant endothermic Cretaceous sharks Ptychodus mortoni and Cretoxyrhina mantelli. Although P. mortoni is suggested to be either gigantotherm or active heating (mesotherm), while C. mantelli sustained temperature by mesothermy and migration.

While not super specific there are at least trends you can PAY ATTENTION TO (cough looking at you red cretoxyrhina recon)
Various Antelope are a fun example where many open habitat species show this high up countershading w high contrast
