That's how I remember the wolf) And a "demon" that looked like a t-rex with a styracosaurus skull (though the skull still had t-rex teeth)

Really interesting idea, because crocodiles can actually walk with their legs under their body, in a not-completelly-sprawled position, just like most mammals, and unlike most reptiles and lizards. The other kind of non-extinct animal who does that is birds, but all birds are bípeds, so it's harder to see the resemblance. So give your coworker some credit. They had good observations, even if their results were "a little" off due to an incomplete research....

The pterosaur wing thing is super important to their locomotion, because it let them walk on their hands and tuck their wing up. Which means that they could actually pull off some impressive activity on the ground. Which is probably why birds ended up monopolizing the smaller flying niches and pterosaurs ended up being giants that walked around on all fours eating large prey. They were able to have higher take off weights than birds.

While birds surely provided a lot if competition for the small flyer niches it should also be noted that unlike them pterosaurs were able to fly soon after hatching. That means that they probably were quite independent from a young age and occupied small flyer niches for a part of their lives gradually shifting towards the gigantic dimension like Quetzalcoatlus. So that can also be an explanation why there were mostly big pterosaurs left in the end of the Cretaceous. It's kinda like the adult T.rex being an apex predator and juvenile T.rex serving as a middle sized predator

Imagine doing a worse job making a fake animal skeleton then the guy who gave the tarantula a ribcage. Like you somehow managed to get less accurate then a skeleton that straight up doesn't exist.

I learned several things today: Spiders have skeletons Snakes do not Bats have very very long legs Birds have finger bones going down there ulna and no radius Cats ears are made of bone and they have rat teeth and jointed like an atat and walk on the sole of there feet Sternum, keel? Thats not important XD Quality biology there

I love that the inaccuracy of the first one is that it even exists in the first place XD The employee telling you snakes don't have skeletons is comedy gold. It would be misinformation regardless of who the customer was, but the fact that he unknowingly said this to a literal expert is just too much. What a funny story to be able to tell!

Honestly, I think some of those skeletons are pretty cool, at least from a purely artistic perspective. They're not accurate at all, yeah, but they're not anatomy models, they're Halloween decorations. The bird and spider in particular look like skeletal monsters trying to imitate animals, rather than skeletons of the animals themselves, which is a fun concept to me.

Yes, this exactly- I've always imagined these as the necromancer or animating force taking a collection of bones and shapes them into a mockery of living creatures. The 'worst' ones like the invertebrates and the chimeric frankencreatures are, IMO, the best ones.

they're clearly not anatomically accurate but that's not the point. when someone makes a spider or octopus skeleton they don't want to create something sensible, but something interesting and fun. the wrong skeletons of vertebrates are a bit less justifiable, though I do find artistic liberties like the bone ears quite endearing too.

I don't know if that makes it better or worse but I think they might be putting the ears on purpose in order for customers to recognize what the product represents. I think so because everybody has seen human skulls atleast on a picture and knows that there are no external ears on it, so why would there be in other mammals. So either they are doing it on purpose or are extremely stupid.

One thing to keep in mind is that in the idea of these as a fun, fictitious thing, if some necromancer were to try and create a spider or other animal with their dead-flesh animating powers, it is easy to pretend that they would just assemble them out of something easy like rabbit bones, just for the purpose of making them roughly the shape. Obviously its all just for fun and I have long been amused by the skeletal spider that my neighbors had up that looks like it has a ribcage for an abdomen.
