Evolution Park Cynognathus

Cynognathus is an extinct genus of large, terrestrial carnivorous synapsids which lived during the late Permian period. It is believed to have been one of the first true, large carnivorous land animals and was likely an ambush predator. Fossils of Cynognathus have been found in South Africa and Antarctica. Due to its large size and predatory lifestyle, Cynognathus would be an interesting and exciting addition to Evolution Park. It could be used to demonstrate the evolution of land-based animals and the development of carnivorous behavior. It would also be a unique way to connect visitors to the prehistoric past and bring the ancient world to life.
