Prehistoric watering hole. Computer artwork of three Ouranosaurus dinosaurs drinking at a watering hole during the early Cretaceous period (about 110 million years ago) in what is now Africa. A Sarcosuchus (lower left) floats nearby waiting to strike. The arid landscape is studded with prickly juniper (Juniperus oxycedrus) and conifer trees. Ouranosaurus was a variety of Iguanodont, a group of large plant-eating dinosaurs that included the well-known hadrosaurs (duck-billed dinosaurs). Sarcosuchus is an extinct genus of crocodilian reptile and a distant relative of todays crocodiles

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early Cretaceous period, approximately 110 million years ago, in what is now Africa. The artwork depicts a prehistoric watering hole bustling with life and activity. Three majestic Ouranosaurus dinosaurs can be seen gracefully drinking from the water source, their powerful bodies reflecting their herbivorous nature. These Iguanodonts were part of a larger group of plant-eating dinosaurs that included the famous hadrosaurs. However, danger lurks nearby as a Sarcosuchus patiently floats in the water, waiting for its moment to strike. This ancient crocodilian reptile was an ancestor of today's modern-day crocodiles and demonstrates the evolutionary history of these formidable predators. The arid landscape surrounding the watering hole is adorned with prickly juniper and conifer trees, providing some respite from the dry conditions prevalent during this era. It offers a glimpse into the botanical diversity that existed alongside these magnificent creatures. This mesmerizing artwork not only showcases an important chapter in Earth's natural history but also highlights the intricate interplay between flora and fauna during this time period. It serves as a reminder of our planet's rich biological past and invites us to marvel at how life has evolved over millions of years.
