Precambrian Time to Mesozoic Era

[Dalia]

Waptia fieldensis was a species of arthropod from the Middle Cambrian Burgess Shale Lagerstätte of Canada. It grew to a length of about 8 cm (3 in) and resembled modern shrimp in both morphology and habit. It had a large bivalved carapace and a segmented body terminating into a pair of tail flaps.

Xenokeryx ("strange horn" in Greek) is an extinct genus of ruminant known from the Miocene of Europe. The type species, Xenokeryx amidalae, was recovered from central Spain and bears a unique T-shaped protrusion from the top of the head.

Zebu - Post precambrian, but I thought it fits in well with the xenokeryx.

Arctodus simus is one of the largest bears to have ever existed. It is known as "the short-faced bear" and lived in North America. It might have been faster and more aggressive than most predators.

If this wasn't mentioned in Genesis where's your proof that these eras existed...just asking for the devout believers in God.

Where's the proof what the Bible says is true? Surely people can BELIEVE whatever they like and make a game out of it without proof issues.

It's a coincidence I had a nightmare about bears being after me last night.

In March 2017, fossilized microorganisms (microfossils) were announced to have been discovered in hydrothermal vent precipitates from an ancient sea-bed in the Nuvvuagittuq Belt of Quebec, Canada. These may be as old as 4.28 billion years, the oldest evidence of life on Earth, suggesting "an almost instantaneous emergence of life.

Where was our solar system 4.28 million years ago? Self-movement (automobility) comes from intelligence. What is over there that transmits intelligence, which is a life-form in itself that needs something material to be absorbed by?

Falcatus; pronounced fal-CAT-us

Habitat:

Shallow seas of North America

Historical Period:

Early Carboniferous (350-320 million years ago)


Size and Weight:

About one feet long and one pound

Smallest Prehistoric Shark: Falcatus (One Pound)​

Sharks have a deep evolutionary history, predating mammals, dinosaurs, and pretty much all terrestrial vertebrates. To date, the smallest identified prehistoric shark is Falcatus, a tiny, bug-eyed menace the males of which were equipped with sharp spines jutting out of their heads (which seem to have been used, rather painfully, for mating purposes). Needless to say, Falcatus was a far cry from true undersea giants like Megalodon, which it preceded by a whopping 300 million years.
