The moa is a species of flightless birds endemic to New Zealand. They are related to the Australian emu. They were hunted to extinction by 1400AD.
Ice Age: The Lost Kingdom was at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens on Westbourne Road in Edgbaston from the 6th to the 28th April 2019. They kept sending me emails for 20% off, but then got one for 40% off early bird for the opening weekend, and that convinced me to go!
Similar to the 2017 event with dinosaurs, but with extinct animals from the ice age.
Features giant life sized animated beasts with sound effects.

A smilodon sits on a rock outcropping surrounded by golden fall fields. Looking down into the dense grass, he sees something he doesn't like. He snarls and bears his wicked teeth as something threatens him from below.
This one is a bit more simple than my usual scenes. It started out because I decided that I did not have enough casual long-sleeve shirts for the winter. So, I decided to make one featuring one of my favorite paleo animals. It really wound up not working well for a shirt, but I rather like the way it turned out as a general artwork.
The beautiful geeky Great Auk of Iceland. Rendered extinct in the mid-nineteenth century. This is a very old postcard (early 20th century) showing a taxidermied one. I found this in an antiques shop in Reykjavik. Island species lower on the food chain without the means to conceal themselves or effect escape or migration perish rather quickly. (in evolutionary terms). We see this again in again in the history of evolution. In this case it was man, but in 99.99999999% of the other cases it was another species or multiple predators that were responsible.

Three achelousauruses search a foggy landscape. The leader calls out into the air, while one of the others peers into the mist, and the third sniffs the ground. Perhaps they have become separated from their herd and are looking for a way back or perhaps a young one has gotten lost in the fog. With Tyrannosauruses inhabiting the same region, this could be a rather dangerous situation for this trio of ceratopsid dinosaurs.
Achelousaurus was a type of centrosaurine ceratopsid dinosaur that lived during the late Cretaceous in what is now Montana. The species was of the same family of dinosaurs as the more famous Triceratops.
The cranium of the extinct Mauritian Giant Tortoise (Cylindraspis sp.). This skull was excavated during the Dodo Expedition on Mauritius. It is photographed on the exhibition of this expedition in the National Museum of Natural History 'Naturalis' in Leiden, the Netherlands.
Flying reptiles. Pterodactylus and Rhamphorhynchus are both pterosaurs, a group of flying reptiles that were dominant aerial predators from 220 to 65 million yerars ago. They became extinct along with the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous Period. This is a Rhamphorhynchus.

Text and bones of the Tenerife Giant Rat (Canariomys tamarani), in the exhibition of the Canarian Museum of Nature and Humankind

A small blue and purple feathered microraptor sits on a fallen tree in a dense Cretaceous era forest. It looks to the left to show its head in profile as is perches on the log. Its tail curves slightly in the same direction, show off its bright plumage. The twisted trunk of the down tree is covered with moss and shelf fungus. Ferns carpet the primeval forest floor as rays of sunlight cut through the thick green canopy above.
The microraptor was one of the smallest of dinosaurs. It was covered in feathers had wings on both it's arms and legs. It is one of the most commonly found fossils.
I decided to go a little wild with the coloring of this little dino. Originally, I had him in various shades of brown, but he didn't seem eye catching enough. So, I decided blue and purple would really make this fella stand out. After all, many birds have bright and intricate feather patterns, why couldn't a prehistoric cousin not have the same?
