The Dinosaur-A-Day Christmas Advent

December 8th Diplodocus
  • New fossil evidence shows that Diplodocus had a row of spines along its back, like the modern day iguana. Those would have been pretty big spines.
  • Christmas wish list: "I'd like another one of those big candy canes, Santa. Do you have Ginkgo flavor?"

I painted this dino for an illustration depicting an egg-laying, that's why the Diplodocus is squatting in a funny position--had to get close to the ground so the eggs wouldn't crack on impact.
