We already have Terrorbirds (Tallstriders) so can't put them there.

If ever we get fish/sharks I WANT THIS! It's called a Helicoprion. Yes that is a bottom jaw.
Image

Tanky Doedicurus :lol: give anyone a good whack with that tail they would feel it.
Image

Montealtosuchus Arrudacamposi or the "crocodile dog" ran really fast and had legs well more like a dog!
Image

This beauty could run on 2 legs as well as 4. His name is Kaprosuchus saharicus. This guy would go after you with claws and teeth.
Image

Dimetrodon is a mammal-like reptile (NOT A DINOSAUR) they were really cool and I think should be pets.
Image

Gorgonopsia wasn't that big but was still cool, his name means 'Gorgon Face" and had one of the 1st ear bones.
Image

Almost forgot about Arthropleura, I thought this picture was funny and yes they were that big (or bigger)
Image :mrgreen:

I think this is more of a IRL thread, though I'd agree that most of these ancient monsters would make great Hunter Pets as well. ;)

Eh, I like the twisty jaw and the spiny fins, that just looks too much like a normal everyday shark.
Image
Most people seem to agree that they look more like this though, with a narrow top jaw :mrgreen:

My favorite prehistoric shark has to be this guy, Chlamydoselachus anguineus.

And no, that is not a photoshop or made image, this is a real picture taken at Japan's Awashima Marine Park on Sunday, January 21, 2007. This guy is my favorite because he is still hanging in there. :lol: :mrgreen:
