The Earth was home to many fearsome predators before dinosaurs ever walked the land.
Creatures like the fearsome Dimetrodon were among the earliest to dominate ancient ecosystems.
Therapsids were early mammal-like reptiles that ruled the land during the Permian period.
The Inostrancevia, a massive saber-toothed predator, stalked the land during the late Permian.
Dinocephalians were large, armored creatures that hunted smaller prey across ancient landscapes.
Pelycosaurs were early reptilian predators known for their sail-like structures, adding to their fearsome appearance.
These ancient creatures paved the way for the rise of dinosaurs, shaping the Earth's ecosystems.
