A Glimpse into the Triassic: Art Brings Ancient Brazil to Life This artistic recreation portrays a landscape from southern Brazil during the Middle to Late Triassic period, roughly 237 million years ago. Panel (a): A giant predator, Prestosuchus chiniquensis, dominates the scene, feasting on the remains of a dicynodont, a mammal-like reptile. Meanwhile, several smaller predators, Parvosuchus aurelioi, cautiously approach, hoping to snatch scraps of the meal. Panels (b) and (c): These close-up views showcase the details of individual Parvosuchus aurelioi. Image Credit: Matheus Fernandes
