Decoration for Mass Extinction Memorial Observatory
Located on the Isle of Portland in the English Channel, the Mass Extinction Memorial Observatory (MEMO) will be a monument dedicated to preserving the memory of extinct species. The internal walls of the building will be lined with illustrative carvings that act as memorials to the 860 species that have already become extinct since the dodo.

"Ichthyosaurus means "fish-lizard" in Greek. They grew 6.5 feet in length and ate squid and shellfish."
(†Gigantopithecus blacki) is an of an extinct genus of ape that lived from 2 million to 350,000 years ago during the Early to Middle Pleistocene, It's height was about 3 metres ( 9.8 feet) with it weight being around 200–300 kg (441–661 pounds). It lived in mountain cloud forests of Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia.
As it's within the subfamily: Ponginae which are Asian hominids with the only genus of the still alive is the genus: Pongo = orangutan's. I tried to make (Gigantopithecus blacki) look more like an orangutan bigger. Due to it's size I deem in it lived mostly on the jungle floor then up in the trees. I made it black due to it's species name being Blacki, but there not proof of its color. With the three species of orangutan today the males had a much bigger head so I had done the same with (Gigantopithecus blacki). Of the art work done of (†Gigantopithecus blacki) I've seen there had it standing up like a man. kind of like how (big foot) looks. I deem that (Gigantopithecus blacki) could of done that like the genus: Pongo can, but spent 80% on all fours.

Conulariids are an uncommon to rare, extinct group of fossil organisms known from the Cambrian to the Triassic. They are most common in Mississippian sedimentary rocks. Their form is best described as "four-sided ice cream cones with ridges". They have a four-sided, tapering skeleton having tetrameral radial symmetry. The skeleton is somewhat flexible, often has a brownish color, and is composed of chitionphosphate (a mixture of chitin and calcium phosphate). Some paleontologists conclude it is an extinct group of cnidarians, or even a group of scyphozoan cnidarians. Others refer to conulariids as an extinct phylum. Available evidence indicates they are triploblastic, and so are not cnidarians at all, which are diploblastic.
Very rare soft-part preservation shows the presence of an alimentary canal, with the pointed end of the skeleton oriented downward and attached to a sheath.
Classification: Animalia incertae sedis, Conulata, Conulariida
Stratigraphy: undetermined, but probably Lower Mississippian
Locality: loose piece in a stream in the Mansfield area, Richland County, northern Ohio, USA

The wollemi pine reaches back to prehistoric times. It was thought to be extinct but was discovered in an isolated valley in the Wollemi National Park 200km from Sydney. The location is secret but a number of cuttings were taken from the original trees and have been grown and are now available to the general public.

A pay phone near the restaurant we had lunch at in Solvang... the phone is gone; the box serves as a plant stand; the skull of a mammal placed in its place (I didnt check to see if the skull was real or not). Very appropriate for a bygone era - PAYPHONES.
This species used to inhabit the Carco Azul springs in Mexico at about 1600m above sea level. They are now extinct in the wild and the species is maintained by hobbyists.
Penshurst, home to the extinct volcano Mount Rouse. To the south of the main scoria cone is a deep circular crater with a small lake and shallow crater rimmed with basalt. Past lava flows from Mount Rouse followed shallow, gently sloping river courses, extending at least 60kilometers south. The Mount Rouse summit provides panoramic views of the lava plain and surrounding district.
