Welcome to prehistoric-wildlife.com,
a comprehensive online guide to prehistoric creatures.
In the species index you will find a great many entries, but don’t
expect to find just dinosaurs. While there is a great number of
dinosaur species on here, you will also find the early arthropods
which include sea scorpions bigger than a person. The earliest fish
are also here, including the prehistoric sharks that hunted the ocean
depths before, during and after the age of giant marine reptiles.
The early amphibians and their early reptile descendants also have
entries.
From
here you will have entries for the dinosaurs, but also
other creatures of the Mesozoic like the pterosaurs, early mammals,
ancient crocodiles and the first birds. Other index entries will be
for the mammals that became the dominant life forms of the planet after
the dinosaurs, with entries from the sabre toothed cats to the first
whales. You will even find entries for animals that are prehistoric,
but are still alive in our world today.

This
site also tries to go beyond being just another online encyclopaedia
and includes articles about the creatures in general. These cover
subjects such as biology of the creatures, possible behaviour, to
how they were found and reconstructed.
Two
additional sections are the glossary and time periods page. The
glossary is a good place to check out if you are uncertain about what
some of the words and terminology mean. The time periods page is an
overview of how the different geological time periods fit together.
Fun
areas are the acivities section which features fun activity sheets
which
can be downlaoded and printed off. Top lists on the other hand features
compilations of creatures that stand out amongst others for a given
particular field.
