![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Two years ago, I wrote a short ScienceNOW piece about Poposaurus and a monograph describing the creature’s postcranial skeleton. Even though paleontologists traditionally thought that dinosaurs had an immediate edge over all over forms of Triassic life thanks to muscular legs held close together right beneath their bodies, rather than sprawled out to the sides, there were also croc copycats that cramped dinosaurian style. That’s weird, because the Triassic critter wasn’t a dinosaur at all, but a peculiar archosaur more closely related to crocodiles.
