Ecological Disparity: Exploring the Mysterious Decline of Notosuchians and their Crocodylomorph Kin in the Face of Rising Mammalian Competitors
Wildlife & BiologyEcological Underdogs: Why Did the Mighty Notosuchians Bite the Dust? For nearly 200 million years, crocodylomorphs—think crocodiles, but way more diverse—ruled the roost. Among them, the notosuchians were the oddballs. These weren’t your typical swamp-dwelling crocs; they were landlubbers, sporting a surprising variety of shapes and sizes. But then, something happened. The Mesozoic Era slammed
