What do you think the giant hole in the skull was for? A giant eye? Fascinating creatures. How did they walk with no back legs?

you mean the MOUTH????
Well we have to account for bone structure and also fatty tissue. You don't know that was its mouth, it could be a huge eye.
We already explained that it had small eyes because it lived underground you subliterate dumbass.
Many nocturnal animals have large eyes, perhaps it was nocturnal.
There's no reason for any animal to have a mouth that big. It had to have been a large nose.
to reduce weight so they float
Looks like some aquatic creature. Looks too huge to be dragging itself on land and the tail look powerful enough to match sharks
blowhole.
>no back legs
What do you mean? They're right there.
Based on phylogenetic bracketing we know that this was a blind subterranean animal covered in a dense coat of fur, like a mole
That would explain the large front limbs, for digging burrows.
that's not how bracketing works
That's EXACTLY how phylogenetic bracketing works. You misrepresent one species in the fossil record and come to all sorts of moronic conclusions based on that and your agenda of pushing a view of the taxon you want to believe in.
hello paleoschizo.
You faled at getting attention with the walrus thread and are trying with a whale?
same exact reply even
>Also based on phylogenetic bracketing it would have only squeaked or hissed like a rat or opossum and not made any weird sounds like grunting or bellowing or whatever
Why do you always have to show up and ruin our paleo fun? What's your problem mate?
Paleoprostitute is a woman, though I'm starting to think transwoman at this point, the way it acts.
>I'm paleoschizo now
I don't know how to feel about this
She's saying you know more about dinosaurs than her.
>she

This schizo autist is kind of funny honestly. "Based on phylogenetic bracketing" has good shitpost potential.
Based on phylogenic bracketing, your mother's a prostitute.
I WILL sodomize you with a walrus tooth and you CANNOT stop me.
The vitreous cavity is right there by the temporomandibular joint stupid.
Exactly, that's why the eyes are so small.
they could also likely echolocate, like bats do today, the only surviving mammalian lineage.
they arent closely related, so it seems likely that every mammal species could echolocate, it was innate ability to the order.
Echolocation is the only explanation for both big ears and big nose. They used their massive nose as a kind of loudspeaker to project their booming squeaks.
