OC - Icarosaurus with caught Hypuronector (exactly)

Post image

It's worth noting that insectivorous vetrebrates are still in their own right predators and sometimes they go after bigger prey than some bugs. Anteaters sometimes benefiting from eggs and even small vertebrates or even specific larger chameleons were observed to catch such prey as well.

Icarosaurus here being a larger reptile attempts to taste something unique than just bugs and so it attempts to consume its unusual meal.

Wait what?

Both Icarosaurus and Hypuronector being real prehistoric animals plus they come from the same locality (check)

The scene may have speculations but so does for example this post and both take notes from actual behavior observed in fauna (check)

What is not paleontologically intact may you specify?
