Dinosaurs during the Carnian Pluvial Episode

Caption

A life-scene from 232 million years ago, during the Carnian Pluvial Episode after which dinosaurs took over. A large rauisuchian lurks in the background, while two species of dinosaurs stand in the foreground, and some rhynchosaurs sit on the logs to the left. Based on data from the Ischigualasto Formation in Argentina.
